@Fred_vdp I tried repairing the game this evening after the first crash. I want to say it went for ~1hr, maybe a little over, before crashing again.
The biggest change I've seen was after upgrading the drivers to 16.1 and turning off the Origin in-game overlay. I can't control drivers, but perhaps there's something else trying to pop-up from the system tray or something that I don't see til after the crash. I'm going to try running it in windowed mode, see if I can observe anything different.
Add Origin's Achievement popups to the list of possible culprits.
After about an hour of windowed play (ew) I saw a popup in the corner for an Achievement... I have never seen these in fullscreen, although I apparently have like 8 of them in the game. I turned off all notifications from Origin, but there is no option to turn off Achievement pop-ups. I went back into full-screen, and in the middle of a fairly outstanding round of Fighter Squadron it crashed again.
If anyone knows how to disable these please let me know.

The achievement messages use Origin's in game overlay feature to display the messages. If you don't use Origin in game you can disable it for each game or entirely for all your games.
