This is done by several classes of NAVAIDS (aids to navigation).
These include various radio beacons that broadcast from airports and other geographic points. These systems include the system "VOR" (VHF Omnidirectional Ranging) which is often used with DME (Distance Measuring Equipment) or TACAN (Tactical Air Navigation).
For aircraft, these are widely supplemented by Air Traffic Control radar, including onboard transponders that can identify the speed and altitude at which a plane is flying. For ships, there are many navigational lights and buoys closer to shore. There are also accurate GPS devices that can give ships and planes their geographic position to within a few feet.
the battle of midway was fought by mainly air, partly sea, and no land. The US had planes station on Midway, but no actual fighting took place on land. It was mainly a battle of air craft carrier based air planes bombing the enemies ships.
Air, land and sea were the types of battles fought in World War 2. They used ships, subs, boats, tanks, large weapons and infantry weapons, fighter planes and bomber planes.

RUNWAY
A lighthouse lights up the sea for captains to get to land safely. At night, you only got the moon to direct you, but if you see a lighthouse from far out the sea, you can get guided towards it.
No because the air around the plane has pressure. If two planes take off at the same time the planes will crash. The planes might crash if they land at the same time.
Planes cannot land straight up and down
Planes can land on airfields normally. Specifically on a runway. However some planes can land on water. FloAt planes for example. Others can land on snow if they equipped with skis and still other may land on unprepared surfaces like tundra when they are equipped with big tires that prevent them from sinking into the muck. There are many formal and informal airports around the world both on land, water and the stuff in between.

A float plane is a type of seaplane. Float planes land on extended floats like a normal airplanes landing gear, as opposed to boat-hulled sea planes. Float planes are usually land airplanes which have been converted to land on water, although some aircraft are specially designed for this purpose. Some aircraft like the Cessna Caravan are available in float-plane configuration straight from the factory, but most float-planes are modified land-planes. Float planes may or may not have the ability to extend wheels from their floats to land on land. It is a common feature, but not all float planes are so equipped.
The weather changed on the Spanish ships and blew them out to sea rather than towards land. The tides in that area also change and the ships didn't know about the current moving in the wrong direction.
There are radio beacons and navigational lights along the shore. The radio signals are identified by their frequency and signal. The lights flash in distinct ways to indicate where they are and what they are marking, according to published charts.
