Am after I post this.. am going to reload, get some basic info on the area, where this happened for Me.

Would on what the plane was.. but as I was moving the mouse pointer to see just what the plane was.. if it was a solo or a duo... next I knew, I was staring at the desktop... wondering just what the #&@! had happened...

Soon as I get back in, am going to take a screen shot of the location I was at.. as near as I can...

Ok, Had just cleared the 2 isles, off on the NW quad in the pic (same quad in the orange encircled area).

Sometime right after clearing them... got a shout out of aircraft spotted, via radar. Was already in Nav map, so I went to click on it to get general info, so as to determine.. do I stay riding the surface or do I need to order crash dive...

As can be seen on the map.. area was safe to do a crash dive, if it was needed to be ordered.

Long, short of it... right after I went to move the cursor to get that info... BOOM... Desktopville CTD, here I am... so can't even try to say of what aircraft it was...

Just that it happened & a rough approx, as to the location. Do know there are a couple of air bases near that area... 1 up near Rabal, another one off west of that area...

Any who.. is all the info I can readily provide. Hopefully it is enough...

post edit:

Thought I had that added, when I initially posted this reply...

Corrected,
