Side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner parked facing to the left on a grey runway, it's props spinning, waiting for take-off clearance. The plane is mostly purple, with diagonal yellow and red bands around the rear fuselage, and white tail cone and tail. There are white "Flybe" titles over 6 white dots on the forward fuselage, and the white text "Faster than road or rail" on the sides of the purple engine pods under the wings. The black registration "G-PRPE" is on the white tail cone, and there are light and dark blue, diagonal, "FlyBe" titles above 2 yellow, 2 red, and 2 purple dots on the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the sides of the runway, with more grass and taxiways in the background, leading up to trees in the distance, under blue sky.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on a black asphalt hardstanding that is surrounded by grass. The plane is mostly white, with a thin light blue, dark blue, and red stripe running along the body from the nose, getting slightly wider as it moves rearwards, before turning up into the lower half of the tail, which it almost fills, with a stylised, dark blue runway with a large, upper-case letter "T" in the middle of the top half. There is small black text "Tayside Aviation LTD" on the upper rear fuselage, just above the light blue stripe, immediately aft of the rearmost passenger cabin window. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to an orange and white checkerboard hut and an orange windsock in the distance, quite possibly on the banks of a wide river. Houses and rolling, forested hills are on the far banks, under bright but cloudy sky.

Slightly elevated side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from left to right, following a curving yellow line marked on a grey concrete taxiway. The plane is largely white, with a metallic grey belly, and a blue and black stripe running along the body from under the nose, with red "CrossAir" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just aft of the cockpit windows. The black registration "HB-IAP" is on a white fillet at the front of the tail, with the last letter, "P", repeated on the open nose-wheel doors. A diagonal red band is wrapped around the rear fuselage and tail, with a large white cross right at the top, representing the Swiss flag. White engine pods are suspended from the front underside of the wing, with black, six-bladed propellors spinning at the front, and the main wheels hanging down from the rear of the pods. The red text "Fokker 50" is on the side of the front section of the engine pods. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, and much of the background, with a white and grey, twin engined jet airliner with a brown and black stripe along the body and the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage in the background on the right, and a low, round, heavily glazed terminal building on the left.

‘Throw Thursday 29th October 2026.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from right to left at a low altitude, with flaps deployed slightly from the rear of the wings, and the undercarriage in the last stages of being tucked away, and the nose raised fairly steeply, suggesting the plane has just taken off. The plane is largely white, with a blue belly, and a blue and red twisted ribbon on the upper forward fuselage, just aft of the cockpit windows, and blue "British Airways" titles un the forward passenger cabin windows. The black registration "G-ZBKE" is on the lower rear fuselage, repeated in a larger form under the outer panels of the left wing. Large blue engine pods hang below the wings. Wavy, diagonal red stripes run from the front edge of the tail, with a wavy blue triangle in the middle, and the black letters "BKE" right at the tip of the tail. Pale blue sky with fluffs of grey and white cloud fill the background.
