Current Situation / Problem
Difficult to figure out which aircrafts are around, also see #21.

Suggested Solution
Additionally, check out putting the aircrafts into XP11's map. With XP11 the MAP API has been greatly extended and should easily be able to cope with it.
This change probable best goes into the multiplayer lib.

Benefits
Have an overview of aircrafts. Can serve as kind of a "radar"

Is it possible to "inject" aircraft information using the usual XP multiplayer datarefs like sim/multiplayer/position/planeX_...?
That way Liittle Navmap could display the aircraft as AI.
Alternatively we could agree on new datarefs.

On my system the LT-planes are visible in the XPlane map and also in littlenavmap. I dont think there is a need of an enhancement, its already there. Maybe forget to set some AI-planes ?

Indeed, I have received several positive comments re appearance on LittleNavmap for the TCAS plans simulated via X-Plane‘s standard AI planes.
However, @albar965 Alex, we could do even better and display all aircrafts LT has. See the yet incomplete documentation of LT‘s datasets for a start. That was meant for my debugging/testing, but could work as (a base for) a complete coverage interface. But let‘s discuss that elsewhere. I‘ll open a new issue on this idea -> #86
