Make sure to swear real loud whenever it happens.

I have a guess about how they happen, I have seen other people spawn-die when the plane they last died in is still hurtling toward the ground in a big fireball, and they respawn before it actually hits. But that's just a wild guess.

It's happened to me only a couple of times since the patch (so no way as bad as it was) and I swear both times were when I timed the respawn just at the point my old plane hit the ground...

I second your theory.

Yes I'm quite sure there are three types of spawn crash.

1. Respawning at the same time as your dead plane crashes.
2. Respawning at the same time as someone else in the same place (happens in Strike and CTA, bad lag can cause a spawn crash loop.)
3. Respawning inside a hill. (doesn't happen as often)
