Side view of a high-winged, single propellor-engined light aircraft flying straight and level from right to left at a very low altitude, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is white, with a blue and black stripe running along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-BPVA" on the sides of the rear fuselage, with similar stripes running over the spats on the undercarriage. Green grass fills the bottom of the frame, except for a narrow strip of yellow grass that runs across the frame. Trees fill the background.

Side view of a very sleek, single-engined light aircraft parked on concrete apron facing to the right, that looks as if it is moving fast even when it is standing still. The plane is mostly a silvery grey with a white belly, and the white registration "G-CMJZ" on the side of the rear fuselage, partially obstructed by the right wing. Additional white text "DA50" is on the tail, and "Diamond Aircraft" on the engine cowling on the nose. In the foreground, a large wet patch with puddle is on the ground on the left, although the rest of the ground is bone dry. The plane is casting a strong shadow on the ground, with sunlight coming from just left of overhead. The planes nose-wheel is resting on what looks like a black plastic box, but is actually a very small, remotely controlled tug. In the background, a large blue hangar with white trim fills the frame, it's doors it's doors wide open, with a couple of residents visible inside.

Side view of a high-winged, twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the left on a grey taxiway. The plane has a blue top half and white bottom, with a thin white and red stripe under the passenger cabin windows separating the two sections. There are diagonal "Fairchild Dornier" titles on the rear of the blue tail, and the blue registration "D-BALL" on the lower rear fuselage. A grey taxiway fills most of the foreground, with a block of green grass in the bottom left corner, Fluffs of white and grey cloud with patches of blue peeking through fill the top of the frame.

Wing Wednesday 27th May 2026.

Close-up of the left wingtip and engine of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the right at it's gate. The plane is mostly white, with a dark, mid, and light blue stripe running along the body, with a thin red stripe just above that, under the passenger cabin windows. The engine pod hanging under the wing has red, seemingly hand-drawn "Leisure" titles, over black "International Airways" in a block print. A cream coloured airbridge is attached to the fuselage just ahead of the wing.

Close-up of the green up-turned wingtip of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway. There are flaps extended from the front and rear of the wing, suggesting it is heading to the runway for takeoff. The plane appears to be almost entirely white, with only the black registration "G-EIDY" to break up the monotony, as well as green engine pods hanging in front of the wings. Grey taxiway fills the foreground, with the white fuselage with gold "Emirates" titles of a larger jet airliner facing to the right filling most of the background, the white fuselage of yet another jet airliner filling the remaining space in the top right corner.
