Default Disappearing Aircraft

I have a problem with disappearing aircraft during flights. An aircraft will be seen at a distance but on closing in the aircraft disappears. It seems like that there is a transition from single or few pixel information on the screen to a different type of format. The game is trying to show me a closer view of what I should see as I approach and for some reason my PC and monitor can not show it me so the object disappears at least thats what it feels like.
I also am able to see aircraft in the distance slowly get smaller and gradually disappear as they outrun me which is as should be. The issue is a lot more noticable as I first spot an aircraft and then close on it.

The video I have enclosed looks as if my prop is slowing down giving the impression I was not gaining on the aircraft however the slow prop only happened on playback.

I have tried a couple fixes ie. changing antialiasing to x2 and x4 in the video settings ingame and I've tried setting MeshShowLod = 1 instead of = 0 in 'conf'...to no avail

Please play in 1080p HD
