DFW tower height

Hi I am thinking of getting the DFW add on for the game but the tower is really low to the ground and I feel it hard to see most of the planes. I know it is that short in real life (I have been there many times) but I wonder if there is a way to go in the game settings or files to raise the height of the tower to about the height of the LAX tower. Thanks -ProPilot

In real life, that tower is not even used by ATC anymore. It is now just a backup tower and used by the NWS among other things.  

In 1994, the East and West towers began ATC operations. These two towers are definitely better positioned to handle the East/West operational split. But unfortunately this game version has limited views and because of that, realistic or not, you get centrally located views.
