Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from left to right along a taxiway that is just low enough to appear to be covered in grass. The plane is mostly purple, with a diagonal white band wrapped around the tail and tail-cone, as well as a thin, red, diagonal band and a thicker, yellow, diagonal band wrapped around the rear fuselage. There are white "FlyBe" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, covering some of the passenger cabin windows towards the front, over a series of 6 large white dots. There is white text "Faster than road or rail" on the side of the engine pods under the wings, and the black registration "G-PRPF" on the tail-cone. There are 2-tone blue "FlyBe" titles arranged diagonally on the tail, over 2 yellow, 2 red, and 2 purple dots. Green grass fills the bottom of the frame, lining the side of a black runway, with another thin strip of grass between that and the taxiway our plane is on. Grass and trees stretch across the background, under blue-grey sky.

Rear side view of a twin-engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left and slightly away from the camera. The plane is white on top and grey underneath, with a thick blue and thinner orange stripe running along the body under the passenger cabin windows. There are large, blue "Cyprus Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "5B-DAW" on the side of the rear fuselage, between the rear door and the horizontal stabiliser. The tail is white, with a thick blue stripe stretching across the base of most of the white tail, with a stylised white image of a leaping animal with wings, and horns on the back of the head. A pair of thinner, orange stripes, followed by a blue stripe, sit above this thick stripe, the 4 stripes forming a truncated triangle. The black letters "AW" sit right at the top of the tail. Grey taxiway fills the foreground, with alternating stripes of grass and taxiway or runway stretching across the background, with a pair of white and red light aircraft parked on the right of the image, , with grey buildings on the left. Layers of green trees lie further back, with the tree-lined base of a mountain rising up at the top of the frame.

Rear side view of a twin-engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left and slightly away from the camera along a grey taxiway. The plane is largely white, with thin orange, red, and blue stripes running along the lower body, getting wider as the swoop up unto the lower part of the tail. There is black text "Fly By Light Control Technology" on the upper forward fuselage, the word "Light" appearing in red, and the black registration "G-ASYD" is on the upper rear fuselage. The white engine pods are mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, and have the thick orange, red, and blue stripes running across them. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass in the background separating this taxiway from a black runway, with more grass beyond that. A wide, grey river with an industrial landscape on the far side can be seen in the distance, slowly being swallowed up my misty grey sky.

Schiphol Sunday 9th August 2026.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, parked facing to the left. The place is mostly white, with the silver outline of a leaping lion on the forward fuselage, and mauve "British World" titles on the upper fuselage, over the wings. The mauve partial registration "G-OBW" is on the lower rear fuselage, just in front of the white engine pods. The tail and rear fuselage are mauve, with a silver-outlined leaping lion. Built-in airstairs come down to the ground from the forward cabin door, and the rear of the fuselage, under the tail-cone, between the engines. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with large grassed areas between taxiways and runways stretching off into the distance.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a blue belly, and black "Croatia Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with a red triangle that slowly fades to white just aft of the letter "C". The black registration "9A-CTB" is on the upper rear fuselage, next to a small, red, white, and blue Croatian flag. The last 2 letters of the registration, "TB", are repeated in white on the open nose-wheel doors. There is a large blue triangle at the base of the tail, with a slightly smaller, red triangle that fades to white above it, with the rest of the tail being white. A patch of green grass stretches across the foreground from the left, surrounded by grey concrete, with a black taxiway curving around it, filling the foreground. A building site fills the background, with lots of mechanical diggers and drills scattered across the image, with more grass beyond that leading up to a series of large, white buildings in the distance, slowly disappearing in to haze.
