Head-on view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing along a black taxiway, facing directly towards the camera, but turning to it's right, following a yellow line marked on the taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, while the red engine pods are mounted towards the top of the rear fuselage, under the large T-Tail. A light mounted on the side of the nose-wheel leg shines brightly down the camera lens. Black taxiway fills the foreground, with green grass in the background leading up to a black and grey runway, with more grass on the far side leading up to trees in the distance, under grim grey sky.

A small, 2 seat helicopter hovering a feet above the ground, facing slightly to the left of the camera, with both occupants clearly visible through the large cockpit windows. The 'copter is almost entirely white, with golden, seemingly handwritten "Ardern" titles on the cockpit door, and the golden registration "G-BRBY" on the thin tail boom, the first couple of letters obscured by the rear of the fuselage Some bare trees are visible in the bottom right of the frame, with fluffy grey and white clouds filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway. The plane is largely white, with a diagonal dark blue band wrapping around the rear fuselage and tail. There are large, dark blue "Malev" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with smaller, dark blue text "Hungarian Airlines" and a small Hungarian flag following. Just aft of the main door, below the passenger cabin windows, is green text "Alitalia Partner". Three coloured diagonal stripes - red, white, and green, the colours of the Hungarian flag, form a large triangle in the middle of the blue tail. The engine pods under the wings are white. Squares of concrete apron fill the foreground, with a strip of green grass in the background separating that from a runway in the distance, with more grass and a taxiway stretching off towards trees and fields in the distance, under flat grey sky.

Tails Tuesday 4th August 2026.

Close-up of the rear fuselage and tail of a twin-engined jet airliner, with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left. The plane is mostly white, with the black registration "YU-AJH" on the tail-cone, under the tail. The white engine pods mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage have the black text "DC-9" on the upper middle. The tail is blue at the front and red at the rear, with a stylised white flame in the middle, representing the colours of the Yugoslavian flag. There is a small Yugoslavian flag at the front of the base of the tail. Grey concrete apron fills the background on the bottom right of the frame, with a black taxiway with a thin yellow stripe running along the middle beyond that, the rest of the frame filled with green grass.
