A couple of things:1. I feel like this would be more useful to many people if the map used the common english names for the countries and etc - or atleast the ability to switch to it. Maybe I'm wrong here.
2. Realistically there is a significant amount of military aircraft missing from this, as it would probably not be a great idea for bombers and fighters to broadcast their position on ADSB

Good points, thank you for checking it out. R.e. (1), I'm using the default OSM tiles for now, but I do agree that I need some that at least also show the common English place names. R.e. (2), this is a significant weakness of the public data I'm using (ADS-B), though my hope is that trends can still be observed through the activity/anomalous traffic of broadcasting aircraft, even when the active craft are silent.by Anaxader

You could look into services that have the necessary data to flag flights as military or not, like adsb-exchange or opensky-network (although i think the former is too expensive and the latter i think requires that you get specific permission from them to use their API in this sort of manner)by VoidWhisperer
