Issue with I-16 Type 18 freezing Il-2

[btasm]

No biggee but. . .

I have Il-2 patched to 4.11.1m (completely unmodded). I just noticed that when I end a session using the I-16 Type 18, then resume Il-2 later, I have a problem. That is, after reaching the main menu and selecting Quick Combat, after doing so, Il-2 hangs. Only the screenshot of the F4U shooting down a Zero appears. I then need to go to the task manager to exit. I cannot do anything further until I delete the last quick.

Although I have not tried every other aircraft as the last quick mission, only the I-16 Type 18 thus far causes this.

Has anyone else experiened this with any the or any other aircraft? Is there a solution?

Thanks.
