    I started to notice some weird behavior that I've not experienced with any other aircraft... On a couple separate occasions while landing and or taxing, the aircraft acts as if the wheels banged against some invisible object.

    When landing at Orbx's KSBA airport on runway 7 it acted as if it "hit" something invisible on the runway, hard enough to spin the aircraft around. I could hear a bang sound from the impact. However the runway is perfectly flat and I see no anomalies. During this same flight, right after, it happened twice more while taxing. I heard a bang and the aircraft jolted to a stop.

    After all of this, I restarted the sim and went down runway 7 at KSBA at full speed, several times, the entirety of the runway, to see if I could make it happen again. I could not, it was smooth.

    Something like this first happened while taxing at France VFR's LFBT airport, 3-4 times while taxing I heard a bang and the aircraft came to an abrupt stop. I figured it was just an airport glitch but now that it has happened at multiple airports by two different publishers, I'm wondering if something else is going on? They aren't particularly big or complex airports.

    On both occasions, the ELT warning light came on immediately after.

    I've not noticed this with other aircraft. Has anyone experienced this before?

    UPDATE: I've just had it happen while taxing at KSMF, an airport I use all of the time and have never had problems with, anywhere, I'm nearly 100% certain it's not the airport.
