Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is a dull green on the top half, with a brighter green stripe running along the body covering the passenger cabin windows, with a thinner blue stripe below that, and a white lower half. There are white "Aer Lingus" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with dark green "Regional" titles on the lower forward fuselage. The black registration "EI-FCY" is on the lower rear fuselage, just aft of a small Irish flag. Grey-blue sky fills the rest of the image.

Side view of a helicopter flying from right to left at a low altitude with it's undercarriage extended. The helicopter is mostly white, with a dark blue belly and yellow piping, with the black registration on the fat tail-boom. It's 4-bladed main rotor is pretty much frozen in place, with red and white bands around the blades. Green grass and a wooden fence stretch across the bottom of the frame, with trees on slightly rolling hills on the far side of a river slowly vanishing into bright but cloudy, hazy sky in the distance.

‘Throw Thursday 2nd July 2026.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner facing to the right but being pushed back to the left by an orange, low-slung tug poking into the frame on the right. The plane is largely white, with a grey belly, as well as grey engines under the wings. There are dark blue "Lufthansa" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with additional white "Express" titles outlined in blue underneath. The black registration "D-AIAS" is on the lower rear fuselage, next to a small German flag. The tail is dark blue, with a large yellow circle in the middle, containing a stylised blue flying bird. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a green truck and some other vehicles in the bottom right corner. Taxiways and a black runway stretch across the background, all separated by large grassed areas, with a large grey terminal building on the far side of the runway, with yellow airbridges hanging off the side, some attached to jet airliners parked nearby. A blue and a red hangars are on the left of the frame, with a white BizJet parked outside. Hazy grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner landing on a black runway, it's main wheels kissing the tarmac and raising smoke while the nosewheel remains high in the air. The plane is largely white, with A twisted blue and red ribbon on the upper forward fuselage, and black "British Airways" titles on the lower forward fuselage. A red, black, white, and blue tartan pattern covers the tail and rear fuselage. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass in the background on the far side of the runway leading up to a series of red brick buildings in the distance, with a very large, 4 engined jet airliner parked on the left of the frame. Large tower blocks surrounded by trees run off to the horizon, meeting hazy grey sky.
