SSTO wing collides into launch pad before landing on runway

[LordFjord]

Ahoy,

I had this weird issue on my career save.

Did a lenghty mission with an SSTO, providing crew, experiments and supplies to a station (with station science mod parts). Everything went fine, except the landing. Just a few meters before touching down, the right wing snapped and the plane crashed into the runway. The plane was under no specific stress or force at that moment.

Luckily, I did a quicksave before approaching KSC.

So I tried again - again, at the same point, the wing snapped. The crash log indicates: "Delta wing collided into launch pad".

Tried again, same result.

In the end, I landed the plane on the ground in front of the runway (it was not a max upgraded runway) and drove it onto the runway to recover. When I moved up to the runway, same again, wings snapped, same message.

As if I crashed into some invisible barrier. I don't think it has anything to do with the mods, but its a modded install so I can't post it on the stock support board.

Here's a link to my quicksave: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bjlb1grnx6pvd7r/quicksave.sfs?dl=0

Landed with a wing less:

Here's the weird log:

So in the end, a weird thing, I could not reproduce it except on that quicksave. Later mission landings went fine.

This is a known & extremely annoying issue, as far as I can tell nobody knows what's causing it.

For me, restarting the game before loading the quicksave fixes it.

Nice spaceplane BTW

If anyone knows what's actually going on here, please pipe up.
