Side view of a white, twin engined BizJet with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway. The plane a red triangle in the black outline of a circle under the cockpit windows, over black text "FAI Air Ambulance" under the cabin door. There is the black web address "WWWDotFlightAmbulanceDotCom" above the passenger cabin windows, and the red text "Ambulance" on the sides of the white engine pods. The large black registration "D-CFAS" is on the white tail, under a small German flag. Tall, thin, white up-turned wing-tips stretch up from the ends of the wings. Green grass fills the foreground, with loops of blurry, out-of-focus razor-wire almost but not quite getting in the way. More grass in the background leads up to an expanse of trees in the distance, under grey-blue sky.

Slightly grainy side view of a low-slung, sleek, British Racing Green single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on black asphalt taxiway. The gold registration "G-BCTR" is on the side of the rear fuselage, behind the small bubble canopy over the single-seat cockpit. Green spats cover the main landing gear under the wings, with no cover over the small tail wheel. Several temporary metal fences are lined up side by side in the foreground, with the white and yellow, high-mounted wing of another light aircraft in the top right of the frame, and a white and red single-engined light aircraft in the background on the left. Several people are leaning on fences in the background, most of them looking away from these planes, with vehicles, food trucks, and the occasional large tent , under flat white sky.

Somewhat grainy and slightly backlit shot of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from right to left at a very low altitude, with it's undercarriage extended and flaps deployed from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with a blue belly and blue stripe running along the body just below the passenger cabin window, the latter overlaid with blue "Compagnie Corse Mediterranee" titles. The tail is dark blue, with stylised white waves and golden birds. Pale blue skies with fluffs of white cloud fill the background, with a white helicopter flying at the bottom of the frame.

Frankfurt Friday 9th October 2026.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway, following yellow lines marked on the ground. The plane is white on top, with a grey lower half, and a blue stripe running along the body, covering the main passenger cabin windows. A small, red and yellow Chinese flag is on the upper forward fuselage, just ahead of black "Air China" titles in English, between the main and upper deck windows, repeated slightly further back in a Chinese script. The black registration "B-2438" is on the side of the upper rear fuselage, just ahead of the white tail, which a highly stylised, red flying bird facing to the left, in the middle. There is smaller, black text "Boeing 747SP" on the lower rear fuselage, between the rear cabin door and the horizontal stabiliser. This plane is noticeably shorter than other planes of this type, with an over-sized tail. A blue, metal air-bridge stretches across the bottom of the frame in the foreground. A sandy-brown terminal building stretches across the frame in the background, with a much smaller airliner with a dark blue and yellow tail parked nose-in to the building visible over the top of this plane, and a couple of blue air-bridges hanging off the heavily-glazed sides. A taller, sandy-brown building is in the distance on the left, with a taller, red brick building stretching halfway across the frame from the right, under grey sky with hints of orange low down towards the horizon.

Side view of a white, 4-engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway, following a yellow line marked on the surface. The plane has dark blue "Philippines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a small, red, blue, and white Philippine flag on the side of the rear fuselage. The tail has a red, upward pointing triangle at the rear, a similar blue triangle at the front, and a smaller, downward-pointing white triangle separating them, with a yellow sunburst on the blue, peeking out from behind the red. Grey taxiway fills the foreground, with a pair of sandy-brown, low buildings in the background,, with trees in the distance meeting grey sky with hints of blue and orange.
