FYI, from the description, this is similar - or the same - as this bug-logged topic:

Too strict LOD rule on Aircraft landing gears! (Culling of Aircrafts Gear)

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Description of the issue:Gears vanish from short distance away on all aircraft. Visible Distance should be extended. Imersion breaking when watching aircraft landing in replay mode and ai/online. I know this issue have been merged in other topics but i think this should be left as a standalone issue.[This issue is much worse in VR] If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue:All aircraft [PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons?

Yes, this topic was raised over a year ago, it was bug-logged as you say and currently has 424 votes.

Similarly the LOD actually within the cockpit was mis-modified in SU4, causing the decals on buttons etc to disappear at a certain (short) distance - very immersion-breaking. This was eight months ago, and has again been bug-logged.

Cockpit decal text / textures disappearing [SU4 / 1.6.18.0]

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Description of the issue: Cockpit text on buttons is not always visible from default viewing position. Text will appear once leaning in closer. This is especially visible on smaller buttons and FMS keypads in a number of stock sim aircraft. 787 Dreamliner almost has no visible FMS pad text visible from default view. 747-8 / tanker both have disappearing FMS keypad text. A320 Neo V2 also has disappearing FMS keypad text as well as text from smaller buttons. CJ4 is mostly ok, b…

For both of these, no solution is in sight. Asobo just say “yes, you’re right”, and then ignore them. Not good.

I second this, a lot of the decals and markers in aircraft cockpits have a very agressive LOD curve. I would love to see this fixed.
