Is this happening to anyone else?
DAMN it's frustrating to be several hours into a flight and then the plane just spins uncontrollably until it bounces off the ground.
I have no idea why, everything is normal, no warnings, just spin till splat. I was going TNCM-CYQB and crazies happened a few minutes before reaching BDA.
No unusual software is started while this happens. I googled but coudn't see any relevant post from others.

Uh oh...
I noticed wind varied from 5-20, nothing excessive. But I do have real world weather enabled, eeek.
I was working on the FMC when it happened, the wind could have spiked and I never noticed.

Since wind is a 2-digit field in FS-X, I suppose 99knots is FS-X's way of saying DON'T GO THERE, YOU NUT!
That could have been 150knots and up.
EDIT: I suppose I'll ask, can't we fly over a hurricane? Or do those suckers extend up as far as there is air?

I figured my problem; enterring RIDAM without speed/altitude restrictions.
I saved a flight with FMC data and can put RIDAM in and take it back out without problems as long as I include spd/alt. The instant I try to put it in without, the plane goes crazy.
