Side view of a large, single-engined bi-plane rolling along a grass runway with it's tail-wheel raised into a flying position. The plane is mostly white, with the upper forward fuselage and engine cowling painted black, and a blue, white, and red roundel outlined in yellow under the rear cockpit in the middle fuselage. There are small "Royal Navy" titles on the rear fuselage, above the serial "LS326". There is a red and blue fin flash on the tail. There are 3 people visible in the 2 open cockpits on top of the plane, all bundled up in thick leather, fur-lined flying jackets and leather flying jackets - the pilot in the front cockpit, facing forward and concentrating on flying, as he should do, and 2 crew in the rear who are waving at the crowd. Short green grass fills the foreground, with trees lining the airfield perimeter in the background, under cloudy grey skies.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with blue "Turkish" titles on the upper forward fuselage, a red and white Turkish flag above the cabin windows just in front of the wing root, and the black registration "TC-JED" on the upper rear fuselage. The tail is red, and has a large white circle in the middle, containing a stylised image of a red flying bird. A larger white jet airliner with a blue and yellow tail is parked facing to the right in the background, with catering trucks raised to the open front and rear cabin doors. Beyond that, a couple of planes can be seen following a black taxiway in the distance, with more planes parked on the opposite side of the terminal building which fills the top right of the frame.

On This Day 5th July 2018.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked on a grey runway, facing to the left. The plane is mostly white, with dark grey "Thomas Cook" titles on the forward fuselage, and the black registration "LY-VEC" on the lower rear fuselage. There are diagonal orange and light grey bands around the rear fuselage, and dark grey on the tail and tail-cone, with an orange and yellow love heart on the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with rolls of razor-wire right at the bottom of the frame. More grass in the background is visible under the plane, with a large grey building on the left of the frame, under vivid blue sky.

Schipol Sunday 5th July 2026.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxing from right to left, following a yellow line along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a blue stripe running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows. There are blue "FinnAir" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with a diagonal blue band under the lower forward fuselage, and the blue registration "OH-LYU" on the upper rear fuselage, just in front of the white engine pods mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage. Black taxiway and grey apron fills the foreground, with islands of green grass in the background surrounded by grey concrete borders in a sea of black taxiway, with a tall, grey lighting pole with a red and white banded base immediately behind this plane, rising up out of the top of the frame. Trees and buildings in the distance are swallowed up in gey mist.

Side view of a white, 3 engined jet airliner axing from right to left along a black taxiway. The plane is largely white, with a red stripe running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows, sweeping up to fill the tail, and down to wrap around the rear fuselage. There are black "Air Lanka" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just aft of the yellow, maroon, green, and orange flag of Sri Lanka, as well as the white registration "4R-ULA" on the lower rear fuselage, just below the rearmost cabin windows. The black word "TriStar" is on the white central engine intake on top of the rear fuselage, and the white letters "ULA" on the top of the red tail. A white, highly stylised image of a bird with wings outstretched adorns the tail. Black taxiway fills most of the foreground, with a large patch of grass with a grey concrete surround on the right of the frame. More grass in the background leads up to trees and buildings in the distance, under grey skies.
