anyway, if your rig is powerful enough, there is indeed a workaround with adjusting the conf.ini file...
for me, offline it works, but as soon as i try to fly online with MeshShowlod=1, it will cause serioius trouble in performance and make the game indeed unplayable...

and it also depends with with FOV you prefer to fly....i noticed, that the planes only seem to completely disappear with a FOV from ~80° or higher...
if i fly with the standard 70° FOV, the planes start to flicker in the critical range,and are hard to spot, but dont disappear completely...

Well that is certainly very disappointing. I'd rather have no sim at all over a broken sim. The disappearing plane thing I think I cannot live with and I'm not willing to spend money on. I'll be a "big boy" (whatever that means) and not waste my hard earned money. I suppose I'll wait a few years for the "sequel" to come out. I hope that means you can still fly over Britain as well as Moscow. Thanks for the feedback.
