Black screen... but sound. NVIDIA cards only ?

This one is easy to reproduce.

Select heavy thunderstorm and try a raptor at night turn on the afterburners and head straight out with the rain streaming on the window. Notice the low FPS... and then switch view (S button). I get the blackout on the first view switch but I can still hear the jet as it swooshes blindly through the storm.

Zotac 770 2Gb,  i7 4770, 8Gb Ram, 250Gb SSD.

Solutions ?

• turn off HDR lighting  (doesn't work for me)
• update your video card drivers (hey its worth a shot)
• start a new virtual cockpit view while still flying (works)
• wait until version 2.1 (they're working on it)

Any other temporary suggestions until 2.1 ?
