Side view of a white and black, single engined aerobatic light aircraft parked on grass facing to the left. The plane has black top and bottom surfaces, with a thick white stripe running along the body, and gold piping in between. The registration "G-IITI" is on a thick white stripe on the black tail. There is a large, glazed canopy over the cockpit, with small white "Nigel Lamb" titles on the fuselage immediately behind the canopy. There are also glazed panels in the lower fuselage, under the wings. Black spats cover the wheels on the fixed landing gear. Green grass fills the foreground. A large, red brick hangar is on the right of the frame in the background, with smaller green buildings next to it, towards the middle of the frame. The tail of a white light aircraft and a small, camouflaged helicopter are in the background on the left. Cloudy grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined, bi-plane, pre-World War 2-era airliner taxiing from left to right on a grass airfield. The plane has a white top half with a grey belly, with a green and black stripe running along the body, and green "Caernarfon Air World" titles on the lower forward fuselage. A man can been seen sitting in the highly glazed cockpit, with a woman staring out from one of the curved, angular passenger cabin windows. A brown brick control tower can be seen in the middle of the background, with a couple of parked light aircraft on the left, and a red fire truck on the right, under flat grey sky.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, just a couple of metres above the white numbers on a grass runway. The plane is mostly white, with a light and dark blue stripe running along the body and up into the lower parts of the tail, overlaid with dark blue registration "G-BPVA" on the rear fuselage. The plane has flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and is flying more or less straight and level, suggesting it is just about to land. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees filling the background.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with blue "Air France" titles on the upper forward fuselage, the black registration "F-HEPD" on the upper rear, and 3 diagonal blue stripes on the tail, getting narrower as they move rearwards, followed by a single red stripe. There is a single bright light on the nose-wheel, flaring in the camera lens. A black runway and a wide grassed area fill the foreground, with a larger, white, twin-engined jet airliner in the background. Trees beyond that meet flat grey sky.

Side view of a rather sleek looking, single engined light aircraft parked taxiing from left to right along a grey tarmac taxiway. The plane is almost entirely red, with the black letters "OXI" (part of the registration) visible on the side of the rear fuselage. A large bubble canopy covers the 2 seat cockpit. Long, spindly legs coming from under the wing carry the main wheels, which have streamlined red spats over the wheels. Green grass fills most of the background, with trees stretching along the top of the frame in the distance.

Close-up of the up-turned wingtip, wing, and centre-fuselage of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the left on its gate, taken from near-enough under the wing, obviously on the apron. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, and a thin yellow stripe separating the 2 colours. There are dark blue "RyanAir" titles next to a dark blue winged Irish harp on the side of the forward fuselage, the last few letters obscured by the wing. The wing itself is white, with the black registration "EI-DLI" on the underside. The winglet on the end is dark blue, with diagonal yellow "RyanAir" titles. Dramatic grey sky, with ominous fluffs of grey among bright white clouds fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is largely white, with a black and brown stripe running along the body and engine cowlings, as well as along the top of the tail. The black registration "N889VF" is on the lower rear fuselage with a brown drop shadow. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass leading up to trees in the distance under flat grey sky, with a tall electricity pylon reaching into the sky, with wires stretching across the width of the frame.

Side view of a black, single engined military jet fighter taxiing from left to right along a grey runway. The plane is basically a large black engine pod with a white belly, with twin black tail booms stretching backwards from the wing root, carrying the small twin tails. The cockpit canopy at the front of the plane is open, slid back along the top of the fuselage, with the bright red helmet of the pilot clearly visible in the gap. The tail booms has white "Royal Navy" titles, just aft of a blue, white, and red roundel. The registration "G-GONE" is on the end of the boom in white, under the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with a large grey building dominating the frame on the right, and trees on the left in the background, under bright but hazy skies.
