Through an add-on package, the company's logos can be placed in a few places on the scenery, or on planes on area where you'd expect to see a logo. The user can then be required to find all the logos, let say five. The logos should be very easy to find, but one of them should be very well hidden.
The company should like this, since they will be advertised in game. Now, the problem with this is that permission will have to be sought from the company to use the logo, and they will want to add a clause to the add-on package regarding the use of their logo, and it will mean this package won't be free (free as in freedom). This is a legal aspect that will have to be worked out. I don't quite like the screenshot idea, since it will be a lot of work as you said, and might cause complains because beauty is subjective. A scavenger hunt plus a draw is more systematic and fair.
