At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

I know corrupt gauges can cause that problem, because I have had that happen to me, and I traced it back to one bad gauge :o

If it seems to happen in the same geographical location it's likely connected with a scenery add on or any third party meshes. If it's random then it might be a guage. If it always happens with a particular aircraft and no others then I'd suspect the airplane.

I doubt you'll get any useful information out of the report. That's a standard thing in many Windows versions. It sends a report to Microsoft that is supposed to help them figure out a solution or determine if it was a Windows fault or a faulty application. Usually it's so cryptic that unless you are a software engineer with intimate knowledge of Windows code you can't make heads or tails out of it.

Do you use real-world weather? Sometimes the computer does that for some reason when real-world weather is being used. Has happened to me a couple of times in the Seattle Area.

It's called crashing-to-desktop and can be caused by the 'spring bug' in FS9. Try flying in a season other than spring.bill

Actually, I have had a similar problem when I fly the Vinka (an add-on aircraft).  Whenever I try to manually tune the radio and hit the button to make it the frequency, the game crashes to desktop.  The add-on is for FS2002 and that may be the reason (I got the Vinka from PCPilot).
