How about landing successfully and instantly re-spawning to the hagar?

The hangar spawn is bugged on some maps since they moved the hangars around with the last patch. I know in the TA (a4?) the hangar spawns you into the side of a hangar, you're stuck with your nose in the wall.

Stegahorse,
The hangar spawn on landing is caused by holding down the spacebar at the same time you hit the tower button with your mouse. It's usually because you're in a rush about to be vulched on landing.

You dont have to hit Tower at the same time you are holding brakes for this one.
Also if you are trying to ditch. While holding the brakes (Spacebar) you land on the terrain and slide into a tree or get killed by a crash.....it will automaticaly respawn you in a hanger which in turn will kill your engine on the hanger wall.
I think this has been around for a long time(The respawn part). And im not sure why it isnt fixed as of yet. But it is most undesiralbe to end up logging another flight that is unwanted. But not using the brakes while trying to ditch is also out of the question. After all you need the brakes to try and get stoped before you hit a tree or a hedge row.
