I thought I read somewhere that units need to have normal LOS to attack aircraft just like any other units. SO hills/ forest etc block LOS to aircraft and visca versa.

Is this correct?

IT may be but for historical accuracy I house ruled that anybody can shoot at aircraft, LOS is not needed. After all, they are in the sky.

Officially, terrain never blocks LOS between ground units and aircraft.

Smoke is the only thing that can block that LOS.

This is incorrect.  Planes have LOS on everything and Everything always has LOS on planes... unless smoke is involved.
