    Photo of the Day 19th November 2024
Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane has a thick green and thin red stripe running along the body, with black "Air Atlantis" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a green and red capital letter "A" on the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass and a runway leading up to a pair of black hangars with small planes parked in front in the distance, with trees and grey skies beyond that.

Side view of a silver-coloured, single engined biplane military aircraft with the wings removed, on display in a large, white building with metal beams holding up the roof. The top of the body is painted black, with a blue, white, and red roundel in the middle of the fuselage, under the rear cockpit. The serial "k6035" is on the lower rear fuselage, repeated on the tail. More exhibits can be seen in the background in the same hall.
