Forward side view of a military helicopter with a heavily-glazed, bulbous cockpit, parked facing to the left on grass. It is covered in a grey and green camouflage pattern, with a blue and red roundel forward of the black word "Army" on the tailboom. The black serial "ZB666" is at the rear of the tailboom, with the grey letter "G" on the tail, just above the shrouded fan tail rotor. Green grass fills the foreground, with a large, brown brick building with windows on the upper walls covered with grey wooden planks filling the background. A white van with a yellow stripe along the body is on the left of the frame, in front of a grey and black military biplane with it's wings folded backwards.

Side view of a three-engined jet airliner being towed from right to left along a grey taxiway by a low-slung white tug wrapped around the plane's nose-wheel. The plane is white on top, with a blue stripe wrapped around the nose and funning along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows, and a bare metal finish lower body. There are large, dark blue "Varig" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with smaller black text "Brazil" just aft of the forward cabin doors, next to a small, green and yellow Brazilian flag. The black registration "PP-VMY" is on the upper rear fuselage, just forward of the open rear passenger door. The tail is white, with the white centre-engine pod running through the bottom third. The red text "DC-10-30 Intercontinental" is on the side of the centre engine pod, with a dark blue circle with a 4-pointed white compass star in the centre in the middle of the tail, over black "Varig" titles. White engine pods are mounted under the wings. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a pair of yellow baggage carts in the bottom right corner. Green grass fills the background, with a grey runway running through from one side to the other, and trees in the distance, with tree-covered hills meeting cloudy white sky at the top of the frame.

Low side view of a dark blue, twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude with undercarriage retracted, flaps barely extended behind the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane has a grey belly outlined in white, with dark blue upper services and engine pods under the wings. There are golden lotus flowers on the engine pods, forward fuselage, and tail. The airlines name is on the upper fuselage in white, but only the word "Airlines" is visible forward of the wing. In the background, fluffy white clouds fill most of the rest of the frame, with a large patch of blue in the top left corner.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, parked facing to the left, with an out-of-frame tug attached to the nose-wheel by a long white pole. The plane is mostly white, with large, dark blue "TAT" billboard-style on the forward fuselage, with smaller, dark blue "European Airlines" text below. The black registration "F-GDUU" is on the upper rear fuselage, just below the tail. The tail itself is mostly yellow, outlined in white, with a stylised flying blue bird in the middle, a design repeated (and reversed) in a smaller form next to small "TAT" titles on the nose. Grey apron fills most of the frame, with the silvery lower fuselage of a twin engined jet airliner at the top of the frame.
