Descending to the 5500 feet minimum to cross the fix at 5000 All of a sudden a wing is ripped off and the plane goes into a spiral dive which I'm unable to recover from :O Crash! Turns out it was caused by a random bug in X-Plane that causes it to stop reading yoke input and set the controls to extreme deflections, exceeding the structural limits of the airframe
