Strange...sounds like it might be a hardware issue rather than the recent il-2 update as ESC is working fine for me. 

 

Can you verify if the ESC key works OK in other games/scenarios outside of il-2?

Maybe try a different USB port also and re-verify your game files also if you are a Steam user. 

 

Sounds pretty weird though...

It has happened to me once or twice that my keyboard in-game completely stopped working so I couldnt quit the mission. It was way before the last update though.

Yes also seen this not just in the latest updated though. In my case seems related to Discord. As appeared to me to sometimes occur after using in-game overlay for Discord or perhaps also tabbing in and out to Discord or other programs. Discovered that repeated opening and closing of Discords in-game overlay using the shortcut then seems to sort things right.

If you have flaps up or down key or ony other key sending commands the esc key will not respond. The simplest way to check is to alt tab to desk and start notepad and look for what letter, numer or symbol is repeated to find the sending key. Then you´ll remember next time wich key to flick back to neutral to get going (or ending) again. Don´ask me how I know!
