No such a thing as a third eye.

You can't actually see with your third eye first of all, it has to do with intuition and perceiving beyond the five senses... but that doesn't mean you see anything.
And I think what you are talking about is something different. You see, after using a vehicle for long enough, you might notice that you become familiar with where it is, so that you almost always know where parts of it are, even if you can't see them. Next time you drive a car you might notice that you are aware of where the right edge of the car is, or the bak of the car is, without looking (unless you are in England, then it is the left side that you should consider). It is a matter of your brain being able to picture things in 3-D. It is not unlike those tests where one is asked to look at an image of a folded paper with a hole punched in it, and then determine what it looks like.
Although it is possible that a pilot is in-tune wtih his plane enough to sense things through it. I am not saying this is true, but that it could happen.

I guess the concept of a literal third eye and 'raw gut feeling' have been previously covered. Cameras are not usually used in aeroplanes, however that is changing as machines get bigger and technology improves. I think the A380 uses a camera for taxi guidance.
Enhanced visual guidance in the form of a Head Up Display have been used by military aircraft for many years. In poor weather conditions (low visibility, low or no cloud base), HUD is also available in some airline and corporate jets.
There are many other devices that act as a third eye, but usually not on the visual spectrum. RADAR springs to mind, also STORMSCOPE and TCAS.

Fighter aces - that is people who have been in aerial combat 5 or more times and are still alive- ALL emphasize seeing the other guy first and sneaking up on him using blind areas "Beware of the Hun in the sun", " You can be shot down in 3 seconds, so look 'round every two" etc, etc. Nobody mentions "use your third eye".

Cameras don't aid in any way. All visual cues are done by the pilot. His "blind" spots are apparrent and accounted for.

I believe all that their "third eye" can see is their seat cushion - and that only if they are flying in the nude.

No, that's why airplanes have all those gauges and dials in the cockpit to measure positions, pressures, etc.
