Don’t see that listed in the release notes but i can see them now. They were missing before this update. Also, panning around now i see no tree or scenery popping in. This is a change. The clouds look better too. So this update appears to have fixed a few things not on the list.

Well I have to admit that I kind of like the side effect of the bug. Seeing the nav lights and the beacon at insane distances even during daytime was one of my main gripes with the depiction of AI planes. Now that the lights are completely missing at least it looks realistic from a distance in daytime. 😉

I do think it looked realistic but i had a very hard time even spotting other planes. So when ATC asks you to confirm the sighting of another plane and that plane is invisible, that is also a problem. I also saw the lights today through thick clouds. But when i did spot a plane, it did look realistic.

I just tested for this and I see no AI navigation lights in the sky from any AI's.  Sky's very dark still.

I actually thought this was a stealth fix, as I began seeing navigation lights on AI planes a few days ago. I didn't ask about it cuz I didn't want to jinx it.
