F70

Front view of a single-engined bi-plane taxiing from left to right along a black asphalt taxiway, it's propellor in the nose little more than a spinning black blur. The plane is mostly yellow, with a wide black stripe outlined in red , running along the body, overlaid with the red registration "G-OKAY" on the side of the rear fuselage. A thinner black stripe with thicker red outline is on the spats over the main wheels on the front of the body. The pilot can be seen through the large bubble canopy. Green grass fills most of the background, with several light aircraft parked on the left, with trees beyond, under grey-blue sky.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the right in the middle of a grass airfield. The plane is in a metallic grey paint job, with twisted red and yellow ribbons running along the body, along with rows of silvery oblongs, and up into the tail. The silver registration "ZS-SUB" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage. Metallic grey spats with more twisted yellow and red ribbons cover the wheels on the undercarriage. The cockpit doors on either side are open, hinged upwards and forwards, giving access to the 4 seat cabin. Green grass fills the foreground, with more light aircraft parked, mostly facing to the right, in the background. Trees in the distance mark the airfield perimeter, with pylons holding powerlines marching across the frame beyond, under blue skies.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with diagonal light and blue bands around the plane's nose, with large black "China Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to larger blue "Cargo" text. The black registration "B-18721" is under the upper deck windows, as well as on the upper rear fuselage. The tail is white at the top and a pale purple at the bottom, with a pink and red flower filling most of the rest. The roof of a terminal building fills the foreground, with large air conditioning ducts in the middle, with large grey metal structures on either side of the screen. A large grey hangar fills most of the background, with a white and blue twin engined jet airliner parked in front. Hazy grey skies fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner moving from right to left along a runway with the rear panel of one of the engines slid back, exposing the thrust reversers, suggesting it has just landed. The plane is mostly white, with large gold "Emirates" titles in English on the upper forward fuselage, between the 2 rows of passenger windows, and smaller titles in an Arabic script a bit further back, over the wings. A waving United Arab Emirates flag (red vertical bar on the left, with equal green, white, and black stripes on the right) covers the tail and part of the rear fuselage. Golden calligraphic art made up of the characters that make up the airlines Arabic name adorns the engine pods, the cowling of the inner engines split as the rear portion has moved backwards to expose the thrust reversers. Another runway stretches across the foreground, lined by green grass, while a pair of large grey hangars dominate the background, under pale blue-grey sky.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left. The body is all white, with black "Star Alliance" titles running the whole length. The tail is black, with a 5-pointed star made up of grey pyramids, arranged in a circle. The engine pods are grey with blue exhausts, with the registration "OH-BLP" in white, next to a Finnish flag. Green grass surrounding taxiways fill the foreground, with more grass and a runway in the background, under grey-blue skies.
