yea I had it few times before,one times spawning into the sea with airbus after reload after crash
& another time into a building after reloading a save with a smaller plane(I remember it;it was with the Extra330Lt ,crashing into a tower in London).The issue might not be update V specific though
Since i’ve encountered it earlier too.
It does seem to me like the saves have become even less reliable in this edition V.
Previous edition I often saved before landing,but after a failed attempt & reloading,
the plane no longer had its flaps down & was in cruising speed again.If I saved before landing this had the potential to make me miss approach,loading a save near landing at full speed.But at least saving still saved the progress.
Now that I’ve encounted situations like with going after the “frequent flyer miles” achievement ,a very long trip,
where after loading a save it tells me to fly back & forth again at arrival, it has become a serious issue in update V. I’ll be avoiding long trips till I notice save files are reliable
