i get it too, NOT all the time though, which is odd...i thought i had narrowed it down to the high res skins, ie when in a seafire with the high res skin it would crash when alt tabing....but a F4u with the old skin doesnt....so i thought it was that. But then after alittle more tested it showed it had nothing to do with that...i think...lol

but my small ammount testing shows

high res skins planes seem to crash it every time....
low res (AHI normal) skins seem to crash 50% of the time? maybe more.

maybe its texture load on alt tabing that screws up AHII?

anyway it crashes in two ways for me

1: it crashes as soon as a alt tab or a few seconds after
2: it crashes when i try to come back, ie it runs fine in the backround (i think, not being able to see where i am doesnt help lol...)
