Default automatic flaps problem in Beechcraft KAF90

Hi folks,

I'm trying to figure out why the aircraft I've been flying (Chuck Dome's
Beechcraft King Air F90) in FS2002 keeps automatically adjusting
the flaps mid flight.

One minute I'm happilly cruising at ~160kts with no-flaps, the next the
flaps get incrementally set to full and I'm back down to about 120kts.
Behaviour is the same whether or not I'm using auto-pilot.

I'm tryin to hop my away around the Pacific Islands and flying round at
full-flaps is killing my fuel-efficency and making for some nail-biting
moments accross the ocean, not knowing whether I'm gonna make it to the
next island :-)

Is there some setting I've missed in FS2002 (I've looked in the online
help and didnt find anything). I've also search the newsgroups and not
seen any mention of problems with the KAF90 model.

Please help, before I become an air-accident-statistic :-)
