Chktrn problem

I have noticed that chktrn does not find all problems. I have been hit
by Tim a few times.
My latest hit was when I transferred fighters from one of my geminis
to a virgo. I have done this a few times in the past and have never
had a problem before, but this time I got the message

"JuhTWmYREx ID: 40
8 fighers have
caught fire and exploded!
All fighters destroyed.
We are taking heavy damage!"

This destroyed my Virgo 🙁

Is there anything I can do on my side to detect this problem before I
send like a chktrn on my side?

I ask the host and the error is seen (part of log below), so am I able
to catch this problem before the host is run?

Use un-turn.exe (or unturn.exe?) for create a text file with the commands in
your trn file. Have a look at the commands wich are given for transfer the
fighters... possible an error here.

Thank you both.
