A potential fix for the Aircraft visibility problems?

[notafinger!]

I can confirm what David said. Any changes to conf.ini in Steam folder has no effect. Meshshowlod=8 in 1C SoftClub conf.ini will revert to Meshshowlod=6 and results in no cockpit and 3d externals that look like they are from an early 90's DOS game.

You can put whatever you want in the conf.ini stored in Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover. The game does not use that file. As a test you can delete it completely and the game will still launch and run just fine. The only conf.ini file that matters is stored in ~\Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover. Change Meshshowlod= in that file and you will see what it actually does to your game.
