Only aircraft transmitting their position will show on the map. These are indicated by the globe symbol in "My List".

You may have been better asking this on the Radarbox page rather than RB24 page.  However as has been detailed by Nortonbeak, only aircraft giving off ADSB signals can show on the map. While most airliners are so equipped and give their positional data, some like most of the flybe fleet, small private aircraft and most military types are only mode-c equipped and don't give out their positional data so cant be displayed on the map.
