Is QGIS the go-to app for visualization of position data like this?
Can it send commands back to the app from which it's receiving position data? Things like pause/play and adjusting the time being displayed?

QGIS is kind of the go-to app if you want to do serious geospatial data analysis. As for _visualization_, I'm not sure. There's probably better options for many domains. For ROS there's RVIZ, but the ROS community's spatial analytical tools are fairly immature.
If you could however do some number crunching using historical data to display things like average air traffic density and routes, it might become useful.
