How to explore land
After getting the "mission cannot be accomplished" message last night after a gruelling 4 hours, I got frustrated and decided to give some of the commercial air traffic a little loving, USS Vincennes-style, when I discovered the following, rather cool bug.
Check it:
1. Lock onto an aircraft above land (or headed toward it) and take it down with a SAM.
2. Select the air track on the map so that it comes up on your 3-d view, and follow it until it hits the ground.
3. At the point that the aircraft hits the ground, it disappears, leaving you free to move around freely in the 3-D view. You can explore the platforms, vegetation, and buildings' exteriors to your hearts content. You can also "walk" right into the sea and explore that above (or below) the waterline.
Kinda fun...
