Hi,
I've only had the fleet 757 installed on my computer for a few days. I flew it from KORD to KATL and then onto TNCM, with no problems from the plane (FSX generated its own problems though including blue screening halfway through the flight). I went to resume the flight today on the ground at TCNM, and when I load, FSX loads into the "Spot" view mode. Whenever I try to enter the cockpit view, the computer waits for a few seconds, and then FSX just disappears and quits, no warning. It also does this when I press SHIFT + 1 or SHIFT + 5 to get either the main panel or the overhead panel up when in spot view mode. The other instruments will appear on my screen and work fine when I toggle them in Spot mode, such as the radio stack (SHIFT + 2 I believe). This is very bothersome and I would like to get my plane back to the states to do some more domestic flying.

Strangely enough, I "fixed" the problem so I was able to complete a flight successfully. I launched the flight with the fleet 767, switched into the cockpit mode (it worked!), then switched planes to the 757 and it loaded in the cockpit mode and gave me no troubles the rest of the way. Hopefully, this was a one time issue.
