Allow aeronautical scales, e.g. 1:500.000 and 1:250.000, for flight tracks #45

If this sounds like a specific implementation of #28 , maybe it is 😄

At least in Europe, we have to posess (and keep in our flight bags) sectional charts in 1:500.000 scale. It would be nice if I could convert my flight track so it matches exactly this scale, print it out and put it on the map to physically visualize that flight.

For scaling information, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeronautical_chart might be a good information source.
