Use unlocked FMB zoom in over the arrow and you will two icons. One for the runway point and then the arrow point. Click on the arrow point and then use the number pad on your keyboard to rotate the arrow. :)

The arrow rotation happens in degrees, and if the map under it is slightly off by say half a degree then the arrow will be off as well.  You have to align the start arrow with the finish arrow first then lay the runway along the line between the two.  If the runway does not align with it then there is nothing you can do to fix it except move the runway until it does.

I think that is what you are having problems with.

1. if other fails, you can rotate your airfield texture in , e.g. Gimp.
2. have you not, by chance, marked "snap" in the object possibilities in unlocked FMB ?
I had not any similar troubles with aligning the airfields, it may be adjusted very fine.

Go to 3D view and hit F5 (not sure, have some tries with Fx keys if it doesn't work  :-[) while clicking and moving your mouse. This way, you can rotate this arrow exactly how you want.
