Was flying Attack plane on Soisson Operations and it exploded for no reason

I was flying back to our deployment to repair (the other end of the map from the action) and my plane exploded in mid-air for NO reason. I was WELL above the terrain and I was "killed in action." No enemies nearby etc.

DICE strikes again...

@Adman_Tor 

Did the other team capture an area to advance to the next section of the map where planes are restricted?

@EA_BlueberryI was on attack and it's possible we captured a zone. Why would that randomly explode my plane? That NEVER happened to be when I was playing BF1 before BFV launch.  If your explanation is correct - is that a recent change? If so - there should be better explanation as to what's happening and NOT count as a death.
