Microsoft Flight Sim CTD error 5 minutes into flight

Hello gravelyboy

Thanks for raising your concerns in Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are experiencing a CTD error in Microsoft Flight Sim 2020, which occurs about 5 minutes into the flight without any error message. Thank you for providing the error details from the event log.

Based on the error log, it seems that the issue may be related to the FlightSimulator.exe application itself. You mentioned that you have already updated all drivers and verified the integrity of your game files, which is great. However, I would recommend posting your question on the Microsoft Flight Simulator community forum, as this is a more appropriate platform for discussing flight simulation issues.

You can find the forum at https://forums.flightsimulator.com.

Here are some threads that may relevant with your issues:

1. Random CTD no error message 5-45 mins into flight - Bug Reports & Wishlist / CTDs - Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums
   
2. [Walkthrough] Avoiding CTD´s - Community Troubleshooting Guide - Bug Reports & Wishlist / CTDs - Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums
   

Moreover, I will keep this thread opened in case our MVP/Volunteer moderator/ can have some targeted insights for you.
