Blue1

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with billboard-style "Star Alliance" titles on the side of the fuselage, running the length of the body. The engine pods on the rear fuselage are blue, with white registration "OH-BLP" next to a small Finnish flag on the side, with a black square with white text "15 years" on the upper rear fuselage just in front. The black tail has a circle of 5 white and grey arrowheads pointing in different directions. Green grass lines the sides of the taxiway in the foreground, with a grey terminal building stretching across the frame from the left, with several planes parked in front, 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.

A small, single engined light aircraft parked on black tarmac, facing to the right and away from the camera. The plane is almost entirely white, with only the black registration "G-CIFL" on the side of the rear fuselage, and the large bubble canopy over the cockpit marring the whiteness. Black tarmac apron fills the foreground, with a high-winged light aircraft parked on the other side of a fuel pump in the background. A large road bridge soars into the sky in the distance, stretching across the frame, under grey sky.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the left. The planes upper surfaces are a metallic, silvery-grey, with white lower surfaces, and red piping. The registration "G-BOPT" is on the rear fuselage in red. The tail is white, with a grey leading edge, and a red beacon on the top. A large grass airfield fills the background, leading up to trees in the distance, with a couple of other light aircraft parked on the grass. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.
