Side view of a white, 3 engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left on a black taxiway. The plane has blue "Top Air" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with the registration "TC-IYA" on the upper rear. The tail is dark blue, with small, repeated white "Top Air" titles. The engine pods are the same blue, with the same "top Air" titles. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass and black runways in the background, with trees vanishing into grey haze in the distance.

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.
