Side view of a long, thin, twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, parked on a runway waiting for it's take-off clearance. The plane is largely white, with silvery-grey "Scandinavian Airlines" titles above and below the forward cabin windows, just aft of the forward door. The grey registration "EI-FPJ" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage, just in front of the engine pods. The engine pods themselves are red at the front and white at the rear, with white "Scandinavian" titles on the red portion. The dark blue tail has white "SAS" titles at the bottom, a design repeated on the up-turned wingtips. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the sides of the grey runway. More grass lines taxiways in the background, with a grey terminal building in the distance on the right of the frame, with a large grey hangar and a tall grey and black tower on the left. Blue sky with wisps of grey cloud fill the top of the frame.

Gat On A Sat 31st October 2026.Read More

A rather weather-beaten and rusty lump of metal that has been left on grass, ostensibly to rot. Vaguely resembling a light aircraft designed by someone who had only heard a description of an aeroplane, there is a place in the nose for an piston engine, with a cockpit just after that, and what appears to be a single vestigial jet engine on the top rear of the fuselage. The whole thing is covered in rust except where it has been burned, mostly around the nose and the wings. It is surrounded by grass, with a red plastic barrier lying on the ground beside it, and a green metal fence off to one side of the background, with bushes beyond that. Blue sky with fluffs of white cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Winglet Wednesday 23rd September 2026.Read More

Side view of a very large, white, 4 engined jet airliner moving from right to left . The plane is mostly white, with purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a scarlet red rear fuselage and tail, with white "Virgin" titles. The upturned wing-tips have part of a waving Union Flag. The engine pods slung under the wings are the same scarlet red, with the rear 1/3rd of the cowling having moved backwards to expose the thrust reversers, which along with the flaps hanging from the rear of the wings is slowing the plane after landing. Taxiways lined with strips of grass fill the foreground, with a grey terminal building with several planes parked in front of it stretching across the frame, under grey-blue skies.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right, following a yellow line marked on a grey concrete taxiway. The plane is almost entirely blue, with large, white "Zoom" titles on the sides of the forward fuselage, covering the passenger cabin windows, and smaller, white web address "WWWDotFlyZoomDotCom"on the upper mid fuselage, over the rear of the wings. The small white registration "C-GZMM" is on the upper rear fuselage, above the rearmost passenger windows, just forward of a small, red and white Canadian flag, above smaller white text "Boeing 767-300ER" under those windows. Large, white, diagonal "Zoom" titles are on the blue tail. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a variety of jet airliners, mostly white with blue or red highlights, parked in the background, with tall lighting poles reaching into the sky scattered amongst them. Brown trees run across the frame in the distance, with buildings and rolling hills beyond that at the top of the frame, under grey-blue sky.
