plus there is a thing called the floor under them so the bucket they sit in blocks most of everything under them and most of all they see is to the side of them so yes it makes sense you see them much better then they see you before there was radar to assist sittings.
plus from the air a sub just looks like a log so if its not producing a nice foamy wake it isnt all that easy to see because of light reflections and shadow effects.
all that being said about how things were, in the stock game you rarely see a ship show up and planes virtually never attack until towards the end.
the mods sober suggested will redo the games AI reaction so it reacts more like you would expect them to.
(it fixes more then just the planes)
