I don't think there is enough energy from a microwave oven to reflect off an airplane so that you could detect it.
At my airport, the radar thingy is enormous and is probably very powerful. Even the "weather radar" thingy at my local TV station is the size of a bus! They said that its very high power would cook everyone in its path if it ever stopped rotating. It is up high on a pole so the only people in its path would be perhaps in a helicopter flying by.

The radar probably uses microwave frequencies that do not cause people to be cooked. Just burned a little if they are distant. :lol:

Microwave ovens were developed from radar, it was found that they cooked birds (and people) in the beam.

An old friend of mine, now deceased, worked on radar during WW2, he had two 'cooked dead spots' on his arm - caused by a specific adjustment they regularly had to make.
