Oi! FlyNet, yes you!!!!!!!!

I just did the most un-believably perfect flight from Heathrow to Alicante in the Trident 2......and when I put on the brakes and waited for the BING-BONG it didn't happen!?!?!
Seems like FlyNet froze somewhere in the middle of my flight, is this a common occurence? I will be checking tomorrrow, obviously, to see if my flight has been logged but in the meantime it is somewhat galling. And if the flight has somehow been logged I most certainly hope that I have not been charged for the fuel or the wasted cabin refreshments!!!I also flew the route online with VATSIM so there is the proof that I did the flight, realtime, but Flynet went down (or something)
I hate to sound like an excuse merchant, because that is just NOT me, but I have to say I don't like being put back right where I started from, especially when I have made an effort to make the flight as 'real' as possible.
I even used INS to navigate.......what a waste of time!!!! :@ :@ :@

PS. Yes, just checked, the flight has gone un-recorded. I guess I am back at Heathrow. Where I started.
PPS. Before anyone else points this out......I am well aware that this is Freeware and I should be well grateful for whatever I get......however......freeware developers need input like this just the same as payware, even more so, because it is pride rather than profit that drives them to create a top-notch product.
PPPS. And no......my internet connection is excellent.
