With MayaVi1 you can't quite view the unstructured mesh, since that might make it quite a mess. What you can do is to use the ExtractUnstructuredGrid filter (in the Filters menu) and then use a SurfaceMap module to view the result (in wireframe mode). Change the cell minimum and maximum values in the filter to select the cells you want. MayaVi2 features a useful module called SliceUnstructuredGrid which will slice thru the data and show you the cells intersecting that plane. You can interactively move the plane around to view the data.
