Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the right in the middle of a grass airfield. The plane is in a metallic grey paint job, with twisted red and yellow ribbons running along the body, along with rows of silvery oblongs, and up into the tail. The silver registration "ZS-SUB" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage. Metallic grey spats with more twisted yellow and red ribbons cover the wheels on the undercarriage. The cockpit doors on either side are open, hinged upwards and forwards, giving access to the 4 seat cabin. Green grass fills the foreground, with more light aircraft parked, mostly facing to the right, in the background. Trees in the distance mark the airfield perimeter, with pylons holding powerlines marching across the frame beyond, under blue skies.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner, with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from left to right. The plane is largely white, with dark blue "Air France" and light blue and red "Air Inter" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and grey . There are dark blue "Air Littoral" "Express" titles on the white engine pods on the rear fuselage, with the grey registration "F-GLIV" on the fuselage below the engines. A dark blue band wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with blue and white stripes towards the top, and a red triangle filling the space just under the horizontal stabiliser at the top. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with grass and trees in the distance under flat grey sky.

On This Day 24th June 1995.

Side view of a military helicopter parked facing to the left. The helicopter is largely white, with a blue lightning bolt on the forward fuselage, before running straight along the main body and the bottom of the tail boom. A red, white, and blue roundel, outlined in yellow, is overlaid on the blue stripe on the side of the rear fuselage, followed by the white serial "341-AA". The rear of the engine cowling on the top of the body is slid backwards, revealing the engine contained underneath. Grass in the bottom right corner lines the side of the black taxiway the helicopter is parked on, as well as the silver and yellow biplane visible under the tail boom on the left, along with crowds of people, and the green and grey transport plane in the background on the left. Grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

On This Day 24th June 1996.

Low rear-side view of a twin engined BizJet flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered, and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. A gold band runs diagonally rearwards from below the cockpit windows to below the rear fuselage, with the fuselage below and forward of that band being white, and everything above and to the rear being dark green, possibly even British Racing Green. The white registration "EI-WDC" is on the sides of the white engine pods, with diagonal white "WestAir" titles on the leading edge of the green tail. Flat white sky fills the rest of the frame.

Winglet Wednesday 24th June 2026.

Close-up of the red up-turned wingtip of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane is almost entirely white, with a stylised yellow crown and a small Spanish flag next to the blue registration "EC-MLC" on the lower rear fuselage, between the rear of the wing root and the white engine pods mounted on the upper rear fuselage. There are blue "Scandinavian" titles on the sides of the engine pods. Grass lines the sides of the grey runway, with the roof of a grey hangar visible over the top of the fuselage in the background, under blue-grey sky.
