they just do a linecast to check if its above or below the ground, they already have the xyz position of the jet because thats just how game engines work.

I'm guessing that this is the issue here, right?

The insert cam (one of cams in the "cam" tab - I think maybe) has its position set by an X, Y point in the texture or UV map (Or maybe a local X, Y translation from the parent, I dont know). This point will automatically lock the cam to where the jet is in the world, but for some unknown reason, does not take into account the jets Z position. In order to correctly calculate the Z position, the developers gave the camera a linecast - meaning a straight line up and down and then set the camera position to the Z value of the highest game object that it hits. For some reason, this doesn't ignore terrain or buildings, so this camera will set its Z position to the highest point that it hits, and if that isn't the jet, then the camera wouldn't be correct. I have no idea why this happens or even really how that linecast works (especially while banking, like how does that even work), but either way, its super annoying in a hanger and a tunnel.
