Aircraft: Fenix A321
GSX Ver: 3.5.4
Problem:
After requesting catering, after the trucks are in place, and just prior to the two handlers spawning in the trucks after the doors are opened, Couatl will crash with the error listed below.
Been using GSX for years and haven't had issues, however since this most recent update to 3.5.x I have had numerous crashes similar to this. Yesterday when using 3.5.3 it was during pax boarding, after updating to 3.5.4 today I'm seeing it during catering.
This particular catering crash occurs at any airport, with any operator, the below example is from FSDT KIAH.
***UPDATE*** The error also occurs during refueling. It seems it occurs at the point when the "BEEP" is supposed to occur notifying you that the catering or fueling trucks are in place.

Anything I can do to fix this please let me know, as GSX integration with the Fenix A321 is basically unusable right now. (The issue also occurs if Catering is just called from the GSX menu as well).
I haven't checked to see if it occurs with other aircraft yet, I am going to check that shortly.
