Ground crew missed the safety meeting again

I had almost forgotten this incident from about a month ago when I came across it today. I've experienced the phantom launch clamps, but this one was a new one for me.

Gremlins? or physical manifestation of the NAN virus?

I have also had stuff randomly explode while flying nearby in a spaceplane.... its really annoying when I need to load a quicksave because of that...

Old bug. Basically it seems like the game screws up the calculations of where your plane is and thinks it collided with a structure or other vessel. If you're lucky the plane survives. IIRC it's related to the kraken's bane changing the coordinate reference, and became a lot more noticeable once the KSC buildings became destructible. Before that (0.23 & such) it would only happen if you were flying near another craft (say, a rocket on the pad while landing a spaceplane).

Pretty sure this is the case, just hadn't experienced where other things were falling apart and ship remained intact.

I hit it after the first explosion, nothing was really affecting the plane, just the buildings. The last explosion scared the carp out of me, it was so quiet then boom!
