I can trigger the disconnecting external power (Mark's report) and the back to zero flaps (yours) too, when using the fuel or weather menu for example.

So far, the first item (ext. power reset) didn't harm me as I always set up my fuel load right after loading the plane, when no switch has been moved so far.
Losing the settings when altering the weather (hardly ever done by me so far) or the fuel load (never done) inflight might be an annoyance for some, agreed.
Maybe you guys can set up a ticket concerning the issue, so the thing gets on the list for the next SP.
