reported Cranes do not resolve until camera is under 1 NM from them

[Boosterdog]

There are bug threads going back to the launch of the map about the LODs on Antennas, towers and the like. None of them are acknowedged as "reported"  at this time. 

Adding Cranes to the list.

I can confirm that this also happens when stationary on the ground. There are two tower cranes on the northern side of Andersen AFB. When lined up to take off on 6L, you can see them just off to the left. At normal view you can only see the control cab and counterweight of the cranes. When you zoom in the frame of the cranes are rendered, see attached screenshots.

What monitors are you guys using to get this bug? There is a known but not acknowledged bug/feature where DCS uses you horizontal FOV to scale the distance vs LOD calculation. Basically as you get a wider monitor the rendering distance reduces.
