I challenge you to take a telescope to the beach and experiment.
I don't need to. I've been in an airplane. I've seen the curvature of the earth.
Through a fisheye window no doubt.
In both small craft airplane, and full-size commercial. But I'm sure my pilot uncle was in on the conspiracy, and made sure his windshield was the proper fish-eye variety. No way that would've been noticeable from the ground.
Go look again. Take a video while you're there.
Have a friend drive a boat out of range where you can't see them and they go over the horizon. Then use your fancy telescope and wala.

Ok... So go to the beach with your telescope, have a friend drive a boat 20 miles, then look with your telescope. Voila.
