Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving rapidly from left to right on a slightly damp runway. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, dark blue "British Airways" titles on the forward fuselage below the forward cabin windows, below the forward and mid-cabin doors, and a twisted blue and red ribbon on the upper forward fuselage, just aft of the cockpit. There are 3 wavy lines (red, blue, red) on the tail. The rear half of the blue engine pods mounted under the wings has slid back, exposing the engine thrust reversers. The spray from the nose and main wheel suggests this plane is moving pretty fast, while the flaps extended from the rear of the wings and the open thrust reversers suggest this plane has just landed. Strips of green grass line the runway and a taxiway in the foreground, while trees are visible over the top of this plane in the background. The blue tail and blue and white fuselage of another plane can be seen in the background on the right. Dreary grey skies fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a small, rather ancient-looking helicopter flying from right to left above a grass airfield. The helicopter is covered in an olive green and brown camouflage scheme, with red "Beware rotor blades" text below the upturned-bucket cockpit. There is black "Army" titles and the serial "XL814" on the tail boom, as well as a red block with white text "Danger" and a white arrow pointing to the spinning tail rotor. It is flying just a few metres above a grass field, with bushes and trees in the distance, under flat grey sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left, turning on to a grey runway. The plane is in a silver finish, with dark blue "SkyTeam" titles on the upper forward fuselage, above the forward cabin windows, and smaller "Air France" titles under those windows. The rear fuselage has some dark blue scrollwork, next to the black registration "F-GKXS" on the upper rear fuselage. The dark blue tail has a thin crescent forming the bottom of a white circle, the white word "SkyTeam" forming the top, and has some more white scrollwork in the middle. Green grass lines the sides of the taxiway in the foreground, with blue-grey sky filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a high-winged, 4 engined jet airliner flying from right to left at a low altitude, with undercarriage extended, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is white on top of the body and grey on the lower half, with dark blue, almost purple "Brussels Airlines" titles just aft of a stylised red lower-case letter "b" made upe of red dots. The tail and rear fuselage is the same dark blue, with a larger version of the red dot "b" logo on the tail, above the white registration "OO-DWB" on the fuselage. The web address "BrusselsAirlinesDotCom" is on the upper rear fuselage, above the rear cabin windows, with small Belgian and EU flags below those windows. Grey engine pods hang down below the wings. A tall grey tower with a black top reaches into the sky in the middle of the background, with grey-blue sky filling the rest of the frame.
