No, not really, as I have not experienced this.  Give me your exact startup
procedure and when I get some time, I'll see if I can duplicate it.  

Are you using SP3?  I have not ever tried the start up in multiplayer mode
as we are usually pretty anxious to get into the mission and usually skip
the takeoff.

It might very well be some kind of bug.  You might want to post up on
Frugals message board and see if anyone else has come up with this problem.

It has happend in both areas. In addition, I think it has happened only
