Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a thin, diagonal band running from under the forward fuselage, just aft of the nose-wheel, to over the top of the centre-fuselage, just aft of the wings, and large, green "PIA" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, between the upper and lower passenger decks, partially covering some of the lower deck windows. There is some ornate Arabic calligraphy on the upper forward fuselage, just below and aft of the cockpit, which takes the name of the airline in Arabic and turns it into a piece of art. There is a waving green flag on the white tail, with a white star and crescent moon in the centre. Damp, black apron fills the foreground, with a multitude of airliners, mostly white with orange, blue, green, and red highlights, parked in the background, mostly facing to the right, but a couple on the right of the frame are facing left. Tall lighting poles are dotted around the planes in the background, reaching up to the sky. Trees in the distance give way to a rolling landscape, with buildings and more trees leading off to the horizon, meeting cloudy grey skies.

Head-on shot of a single-engined light aircraft, with the propellor mounted on the rear of the fuselage, facing backwards. A large, almost black perspex canopy gives great visibility forwards and to the sides for the occupants, although there is next to nothing to the rear. The main wheels are on small struts coming out of the bottom of the fuselage, and are covered in white spats. A thin support strut comes out from the side of the fuselage by the undercarriage strut, rising diagonally to the mid-point of the rather thick, white wing. The black registration "G-MYIK" is visible under the left wing. The 3-bladed wooden prop is visible behind the cockpit, Grey tarmac apron fills the foreground, with a strong shadow being cast by the plane, sunlight coming from the right of the frame. A wooden, green building is in the background on the left, with a green hangar with a black domed roof on the right, and trees beyond in the middle. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with flaps hanging down from the rear of the wings and extended in front of the wing, and undercarriage lowered, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is largely white, with light blue, dark blue, and black diagonal stripes around the rear fuselage, repeated on the sides of the engine pods under the wings, and dark blue "Malaysia Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, between the passenger deck windows, just aft of a small Malaysian flag. There is a dark blue silhouette of an angel fish filling most of the white tail, and the small, black registration "9M-MND" on the side of the lower rear fuselage, the last two letters repeated on the open nose-wheel doors. Flat white sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a small, twin-engined jet airliner, with the engines mounted on the sides of the upper rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway. The plane is predominantly white, with dark blue "Air France" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just ahead of slightly smaller, light blue and red "Air Inter" titles, with larger, grey "Express" titles below the passenger cabin windows, just ahead of the wing. The grey registration "F-GLIK" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage, just below the white engine pods, which have black "Air Littoral" titles along the middle. A dark blue diagonal band wraps around the tail-cone and the lower part of the tail, with white and blue diagonal stripes above that, and a red triangle at the top. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with the black of dark blue tail of a jet airliner, with the white letters "JI" at the top, in the bottom right corner. Very short, slightly yellow grass fills most of the background, with a brown building on the left of the frame, and a black taxiway and more grass at the top of the frame, and a blue and grey jet airliner just coming into view in the top right corner.
