Bug: DCS thinks BLUFOR MiG-29A/Gs land on takeoff

[N22YF]

This is an odd one: when you start a mission set to takeoff from runway in the MiG-29A/G, if you're flying for a BLUE side faction (Germany, Poland, Ukraine, etc.) then you get the notification "Arrival. Parking" and the ATC transmission "taxi to parking area". The score window shows that you took off and landed right when the mission started. This does not happen if you're on a RED side faction (Russia, Iran, etc.), and it does not happen in the MiG-29S (or any other plane that I've noticed).

 

Here's a demo:

 

I'm attaching a track file and my DCS log. I'm running version 2.5.5.41371.1.

Oops, so it is! I tried to search to see if this had been brought up before but I guess I wasn't creative enough in my search terms. Thanks! Good to know I'm not the only one experiencing this issue, I suppose.

 

Also I should add that this is an issue if you're set to takeoff from ramp or takeoff from parking hot in addition to being set to takeoff from runway, and it happens with player-controlled aircraft but not AI.

Nope, not for me:

There is still something odd since the score window says "takeoff" right when the mission starts, but I don't get "landing" as well, and there's no "Arrival. Parking" message or "taxi to parking area" ATC transmission.
