If you keyframe the movement of the airplane, then pickwhip the beam endpoint to the anchor point of the airplane (this adds an expression) you should be fine. Unless I’m not understanding what you want to do.

If the airplane is off just a little bit, adjust the airplane’s anchorpoint to be in the center of the airplane, by double clicking the layer then moving the anchor point in the layer window that opens up.
