TailsTuesday

Side view of a high-winged, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway, with flaps extended from behind the rear of the wings, suggesting it has just landed on the runway behind it. The plane has a white top half and a grey lower half, with black "Brussels Airlines" titles on the lower forward fuselage, the lower parts of the letters "INE" obscured by a patch of grey paint. There is the black web address "BrusselsAirlinesDotCom" on the upper rear fuselage, just above the rearmost cabin windows, with small EU and Belgian flags below the windows. A dark blue diagonal band wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with the white registration "OO-DWC" on the rear fuselage, and a lower-case letter "B" made up of a line of red dots filling the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with another taxiway stretching across the foreground. More grass separates the plane from a runway in the background, with yet more grass leading up to trees in the distance, under bright but hazy sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving from right to left at a high speed, with the rear half of the engines under the wings in the slid-back position, exposing the thrust reversers, suggesting it has just landed. The plane is broadly a silvery-grey, with dark blue "SkyTeam" titles on the upper forward fuselage above large, dark blue "KLM" titles under a dark blue crown on the lower forward fuselage. Elaborate dark blue scrollwork covers the rear fuselage, ahead of small Netherlands and EU flags just in front of the horizontal stabiliser. The tail is dark blue, with the grey text "SkyTeam" arranged in a semi-circle, with a crescent moon forming the other half of the circle, and some more elaborate scrollwork in the middle. Green grass fills most of the foreground, with a runway and a taxiway cutting through the middle. A grey terminal building stretches across the background, with a couple of white and orange jet airliners parked in front. Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin-engined jet airliner lined up facing to the left on a grey runway. The plane is largely white, with red "Jet2 Holidays" titles on the lower forward fuselage, the word "Holidays" having a vertical orange-red gradient. There is red text "Package holidays you can trust" on the upper fuselage, centred over the wings, and the black registration "G-LSAJ" on the upper rear. A diagonal blue band is wrapped around the rear fuselage and tail, overlaid with a large, red, orange, and yellow sunburst on the lower rear of the tail and the tail-cone. The blue engine pods under the wings have a smaller version of the titles from the lower fuselage across the middle, including the gradient. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass visible under the plane in the background. Some out-of-focus planes can be seen in the distance on the right of the frame, parked against a grey terminal building. Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the right. The plane is almost entirely grey, with a dark grey stripe running a long the body, zig-zagging it's way along the front fuselage. There is the bright yellow registration "G-VYGL, and the 4 passenger doors on the side of the fuselage are outlined in the same yellow. A tall light pole is in the foreground, immediately in front of the forward fuselage, and reaching up out of the top of the frame. A metal grid fence is in front of the plane's nosecone, and a fuel truck is parked in front of the right-hand engine. Green grass lines taxiways in the foreground, with more jet airliners in the background on the left of the frame, and various vehicles and apron furniture parked on the right. More light poles stretch to the top of the frame in the distance, in front of masses of trees, under bright but hazy sky.

Low head-on view of a helicopter flying towards and over the camera. The aircraft is mostly white, with a blue belly and white undersides, with black text "National Grid" on the white underside. It is equipped with landing skids instead of wheels, and has a bright light shining in the nose, just above a black camera pod on a downward facing mounting. A high shutter speed means the 4-bladed main rotor appears frozen in place. Flat grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage extended, and flaps drooping from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with red "FlyPGSDotCom" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, and the black registration "TC-NCP" just aft of a small red and white Turkish flag on the upper rear fuselage, as well as small, black "Airbus A320 Neo" stickers on the side of the lower rear, just below the windows underneath the registration. Similar stickers adorn the sides of the white engine pods under the wings. The tail is a dull yellow, with diagonal red "Pegasus" text along the leading edge. The up-turned wing-tips are the same yellow, with a stylised white image of a flying horse at the bottom. Blue sky with fluffs of white cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, just a few metres above a black runway, with flaps extended in front of and behind the wings, the undercarriage lowered, and the nose raised, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is blue on top, with a white lower third, the white swooping up over the wing and back down again. There are red "Thomson" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a red winky-face made up of the letters "T", "U", and "I" on the blue tail. The blue on the rear fuselage, just in front of and below the tail, swops downwards, the space filles by a dark blue patch. The white registration "G-TUID" is on the dark blue part of the upper rear fuselage, next to a small UK flag, above the rearmost cabin windows and just ahead of the rear door, with white text "Boeing 787-8" just aft of the door. There is cream text "Dream)Liner" below the rear cabin windows. Large, white engine pods hang below and in front of the wing, the scalloped edges of the rear of the fairings being rather obvious. A black taxiway stretches across the bottom of the frame, with strips of grass separating that from the black runway, and more grass visible under the pane in the background leading up to trees in the distance, under bright but hazy sky with patches of pale blue peeking through.

Side view of a white, single-engined light aircraft taxiing from right to left on a grass airfield. There is a blue and red stripe running along the body, with the blue registration "G-CGMH" on the lower rear fuselage. The outer panels on the wings are tilted slightly upwards, with the tips painted red. There are white spats covering the fixed main wheels under the wings, with a pair of thin blue stripes running along the sides. Green grass fills most of the frame, with a high-winged, single engined light aircraft parked just behind this one. Trees stretch across the frame in the distance, under grey-blue skies.

Front side view of a brown, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left and slightly to the left of the camera along a grey taxiway. There is large, black text "I Heart Cook s Club" on the side of the forward fuselage, the word "Heart" being replaced by a large yellow love heart symbol, covering the passenger cabin windows, with smaller text "New Generation Hotels" below. This latter text is repeated on the upper rear fuselage, with the black registration "G-TCDV" next to a small UK flag on the lower rear. A diagonal yellow band wraps around the rear fuselage, immediately followed by a diagonal grey band that wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with another, much larger, yellow love heart filling the tail. The engine pods, hanging under the wings, are the same bright yellow. Grey concrete taxiway fills the foreground, with a white jet airliner with large blue text that partially reads "YanAIr"" on the forward fuselage, just coming into the background on the right. Blue-grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing away from the camera. The plane is largely white, with a deep purple belly and engine pods under the wings, and yellow rear fuselage and tail. There are blue "Olympus" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "SX-ACP" on the lower rear. The tail has a blue image of the head of a person with long, flowing hair, wearing a floral crown, and with chains of flowers behind them. Strong sunlight from the upper right corner casts a shadow under the plane towards the bottom left. The plane is parked facing a strip of grass with a mesh metal barrier on the other side, with a large concrete area beyond filling the rest of the frame.
