Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left. The body is all white, with black "Star Alliance" titles running the whole length. The tail is black, with a 5-pointed star made up of grey pyramids, arranged in a circle. The engine pods are grey with blue exhausts, with the registration "OH-BLP" in white, next to a Finnish flag. Green grass surrounding taxiways fill the foreground, with more grass and a runway in the background, under grey-blue skies.

Schipol Sunday 8th March 2026.

Side view of a 3 engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, taxiing from left to right along a black taxiway, following a yellow stripe marked on the tarmac. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue stripe running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows. There are dark blue "Olympic" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with waving Greek and EU flags just aft of the forward door. The tail is the same dark blue, with a series of 6 inter-locking rings, some white, some in multiple colours, vaguely reminiscent of the rings on the Olympic flag. Thew centre engine intake, above the fuselage at the front of the tail, is white, with the black registration "SX-CBG" towards the front, while the side-mounted engines are silver, with black text "Boeing 727". Black taxiways fills the foreground, with a grey airbridge with a black box with yellow text "D2" on each face on top, right at the bottom of the frame. In the background, islands of green grass lined with grey concrete are surrounded by intersecting taxiways leading off into grey haze in the distance, a tall lighting pole with red and white bands around the base reaching out of frame from a grassed area in the middle of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, facing to the right but being pushed bac to the left by an out of frame tug attached to the nosewheel by a long yellow pole. The plane is largely white, with dark blue "KLM CityHopper" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and small EU and Dutch flags on the upper rear fuselage, next to the black registration "PH-KZA", just in front of the engines. The white engine pods have small "Fokker 100" text towards the front. A diagonal, dark blue band wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with diagonal white "CityHopper" text along the leading edge. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the side of the taxiway. A large grey building fills most of the background, with long grey airbridges hanging off the side to the left, with a low brown building and a couple of yellow prefabricated buildings stacked on top of each other.

Low side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from right to left at a low altitude. The plane is largely white with a blue belly, and a thick diagonal orange and thin blue band around the forward fuselage, going over the top of the cockpit, and black "Kustwacht" titles on the lower fuselage, under the wings. Another thick orange and thin blue diagonal band wraps around the tail. Grim grey sky fills the background.
