    Photo of the Day 2nd November 2024.
Low side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, flying from left to right at a very low altitude with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wing, suggesting it is about to land. The planer has a dark blue belly, and large blue "Airtours" titles on the lower forward fuselage. The tail is the same dark blue, with a large, dark blue letter "A" outlined in green, in the middle of a light blue circle. Cloudy grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Low side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude with it's undercarriage already tucked away, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. There are large, orange, billboard-style "EasyJet.com" titles on the planes fuselage, partially obscured by the wing. The engine pods are orange, with white "EasyJet" titles, as is the tail, with the titles arranged diagonally. The registration "G-EZFN" is on the lower rear fuselage, as well as under the left wing. Blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a white, twin engined BizJet with a blue stripe running along the body, taxiing from left to right. The engines are mounted on the rear fuselage, and has a dark blue stripe on the bottom, almost merging in to the stripe on the main body. The registration "D-IMME" is on the tail in grey. A taxiway bordered by grass strips fills the background.
