Functioning Helicarrier Finally Successful

I finally made the flying runway I've dreamt of for years.

Used the "landed-anchoring" type of thing that stratzenblitz and I think other KSP-tubers have used to fly inside Jool, but instead used it to anchor a gigantic helicarrier-type thing in the sky to land planes on.  Kerbals can walk on it, it doesn't despawn out of loading distance, and the game can exit directly to the tracking station/KSC

Yes, I used infinite fuel and ec to set it up because I couldn't be bothered to make a launch vehicle for a 800 ton literal aircraft carrier that needs to land within centimeters of a target.  This is fully possible without cheats, just unimaginably painful to set up.  I already wanted to bite my own fingers off after the four hours it took with them.

The one issue is you have to quicksave/exit when the text is white (not orange) or the entire craft will detonate, piece from piece, when you next load it. :P Haven't really figured out why this sometimes happens, but at least there's a way to prevent it.
