Runway28Left

Side view of a single engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, maybe 2 or 3 metres above a grass runway, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and flying straight and level, suggesting it is about to land, the fixed undercarriage not telling us anything. The plane is white, with a thin yellow and blue stripe running along the body, overlaid with the blue registration "G-LACB" on the side of the rear fuselage. There is a red star, with the side arms made from a pair of pilots wings, overlaid with an image of a light aircraft soaring into the sky, in the middle of the white tail. Grass fills the foreground and most of the background, with trees and bushes marking the airfield perimeter in the distance.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner parked facing to the left. The plane is mostly white, with a blue belly, and blue "Kabo Air" titles on the upper forward fuselage, between the upper and lower deck cabin windows. A blue circle with a red outline is on the tail, with a stylised white lightning bolt (or possibly upper case letter "N") in the middle. A tall, grey lighting pole in the foreground partially obscures the tail-cone and tail. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with various white airport trucks and mobile airstairs gathered in the bottom right corner. Trees fill the background, under grey skies.

Front side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner moving from left to right along a black runway, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the rear section of the white engine pods pushed backwards, revealing the thrust reversers, suggesting it has just landed. There are dark blue "Air France" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to a short, red diagonal stripe, and the black registration "F-HZUR" on the upper rear. There is an image of a dark blue winged sea horse in the outline of a blue circle on the side of the front section of the white engine pods under the wings. 3 diagonal blue stripes, getting thinner as they move rearwards, followed by a shorter red stripe, adorn the tail, with a small circle of gold stars at the top. Green grass lines the side of the runway in the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance, with rolling hills beyond that, under pale blue sky.

Side view of a white, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on grass. The plane looks very sleek, with smooth flowing lines, and a large bubble canopy over the side-by-side cockpit. The plane has a grey belly, with a thin red stripe separating that from the white, and red registration "G-CGLT" on the side of the rear fuselage. The fixed, nose-wheel undercarriage has white sponsons over the wheels. Green grass fills the foreground, with a strong shadow being cast on the ground, suggesting the sun is high in the sky. More light aircraft can be seen in the background - a red one on the left, a yellow one with a high wing in the middle, and a white and orange one on the right. Trees in the distance meet blue sky.
