Slightly going against this idea at the moment. There's the aircraft list, which compared to what we extract from Dump1090 has the advantage of also giving some aircraft types and operators, but the dataset is pretty inconsistent. There's also the aircraft types list, which has many definitions for each type and we would have to pick the first one, whereas my existing curated list is a bit more consistent.

Could do with a dump of tail numbers from their database into mine though
