Hi,

Looks great and works perfectly! But perhaps it could be coloured
consistently with aircraft icons?

I found a small bug: ATC towers are tilted, perhaps ATC programs don't
set the heading of the "aircraft" to zero?

Some time ago I made an icon for delta-wing aircraft that might fit,
feel free to use it if you like:
