Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with a maroon stripe running along the body, covering the lower deck windows, and maroon "Qatar Airways" titles on the forward fuselage, in an Arabic script between the upper and lower deck windows, and in English below the lower deck windows. The tail is also maroon, with the white head of a horned, goat-like animal inside the outline of a white circle. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a large grey hangar in the background on the left, several pale blue fuel tanks towards the middle, and a selection of other airport buildings on the right. Trees in the distance slowly vanish into a bright but hazy sky.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at low angle with the undercarriage retracted and only a small amount of flaps from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is doing a flypast as part of a display routine. The plane is mostly white, with black "EuroDirect" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and an enormous, black, lower-case letter "e" , tilted slightly on it's side, on the rear fuselage. The tail is yellow, with a large, black, lower=case letter "e" in the middle. Grey sky fills the background.

Front side view of a bright red, high-winged, twin propellor-engined parked facing to the left and slightly towards the camera. The plane's roof and the tops of the wings and engines are a shiny black, and black "British Antarctic Survey" are on the lower forward fuselage under the passenger cabin windows. A door in the rear fuselage is hanging open. Metal skids are mounted on the undercarriage, the wheels poking through the bottom. There is a white board on a wooden easel which has indecipherable text about this plane which partially obscures the nose on the left of the frame. Crowds of people behind a low metal fence are visible in the background, under flat white skies.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane has a grey belly, and a thin red and blue stripe running along the body, getting wider as it moves rearwards, then sweeping up to fill the tail. The engines, mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, are in a bare metal state. The registration "G-OBWD" is visible on the upper rear fuselage. Grey concrete taxiways fill almost all the frame, apart from a red and white banded metal barrier stretching across the top of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner accelerating from right to left along a black runway. The plane is mostly white, with multi-coloured "Small Planet" titles along the fuselage, successive letters in red, blue, purple, yellow, and green. The black registration "LY-SPE" is on the lower rear fuselage. The engine pods mounted under the wings are a deep blue, with white "SmallPlanet.Aero" text. The tail is dark blue, with a stylised multi-coloured globe and yellow stars. Lush green grass fills the foreground, with tall green trees in the distance behind the plane on either side, under blue sky with smears of cloud.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft moving at speed from right to left along a grass runway, with the nose wheel lifted slightly off the ground, and a small amount of flaps hanging from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is taking off. The plane is white, with a thin black and thicker red stripe running along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-CIFC" on the rear fuselage. The spats on the undercarriage are white, with a similar black and red stripe. Green grass fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined purple airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage extended and flaps deployed from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly a lush purple, with a yellow and red band around the rear fuselage, and a whitetail and tail-cone. There are large white "FlyBe" titles over 6 white dots on the forward fuselage, a design replicated diagonally on the tail, only this time the text is in 2 shades of blue, and with 2 yellow dots, 2 red dots, and 2 purple. There are white "Stobart Air" titles under the forward fuselage, just over the nose-wheel doors, repeated over the rear passenger cabin windows, and the registration "EI-REM" just under those windows, also in white.

Side view of a military single engined jet fighter taxiing from left to right along a black runway. The plane is in an olive green camouflage, with the white registration "OY-SKA" on the side of the rear fuselage, and a white, blue, and yellow crest on the tail. The plane has a tandem 2 seat cockpit, one pilot sitting behind and above the other. A black taxiway fills the foreground, with grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance, under grey sky.
