When I start the Transworld Express scenario, my DG3 flips over on its back and crashes every time. Any ideas?

Idea#1
You put gasoline in the tank. (big no-no)

Idea#2
You intentionally crash the ship.

Idea#3
You go too fast, too low, causing the quantum effect of heating in such mass proportions that a worm hole opens up
inside the ship, killing the crew instantly, the gravometric forces at work cause the ship to flip upside down and crash
head on.

Idea#4
Just give up on playing that scenario ever again. there're plenty of other ones, and you can even make them yourself.

Similar problem here, both Deltagliders jump up in the air and when they fall back, something gets broken (nosecone
and door).

This bug happen because of the smoke, (long story)

replace the firsts lines of the two DGIII in the scenario by this:

DGIII-01:DeltaGliderIII
  STATUS Landed Earth
  POS -80.6861135 28.5917469
  HEADING 282.46
  RCSMODE 0



and

DGIII-02:DeltaGliderIII
  STATUS Landed Earth
  POS -80.6862966 28.5920370
  HEADING 284.95
  RCSMODE 0

That didn't seem to work. :(  It started up, semi-ok, but I got an error message that my landing gear and nosecone
had failed.
