Side view of a two-seat, open-cockpit auto-gyro parked facing to the right on a concrete pad surrounded by grass. The plane's body is mostly blue, with a white belly, with blue covers over the rear tricycle wheels, and a metal frame extending backwards from under the rear-mounted engine, holding the blue tai, as well as the blue horizontal stabiliser, with blue, vertical end plates on the ends of the stabiliser. The white registration "G-YROA" is on the tail. Another metal frame rises up from behind the rear cockpit, holding the main rotor. A red sleeve covers the end of the main rotor above the front of the plane, attached to the nose by a long red cord. Green grass fills the foreground and most of the background, with a couple of white vans on the grass in the distance, and trees beyond that, meeting gorgeous blue sky at the top of the frame.

Head-on view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing along a black taxiway, facing directly towards the camera, but turning to it's right, following a yellow line marked on the taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, while the red engine pods are mounted towards the top of the rear fuselage, under the large T-Tail. A light mounted on the side of the nose-wheel leg shines brightly down the camera lens. Black taxiway fills the foreground, with green grass in the background leading up to a black and grey runway, with more grass on the far side leading up to trees in the distance, under grim grey sky.

A single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left in the middle of a grass field. The plane is mostly white, with a pair of thin grey stripes starting from the engine cowling, running backwards and getting wider as it moves rearwards, under a single, thin red stripe, with a similar design on the spats over the undercarriage. The text "Piper Archer II" is on the upper rear fuselage, just behind the cockpit, followed by a block of text in an Arabic script, and a small Palestinian flag with the words "Free Palestine" across the middle in white and black text. Larger grey and red diagonal bands can be seen on the white tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with several light aircraft parked on more grass in the background, leading up to trees meeting grey sky in the distance.

Side view of a white, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on grass. The plane looks very sleek, with smooth flowing lines, and a large bubble canopy over the side-by-side cockpit. The plane has a grey belly, with a thin red stripe separating that from the white, and red registration "G-CGLT" on the side of the rear fuselage. The fixed, nose-wheel undercarriage has white sponsons over the wheels. Green grass fills the foreground, with a strong shadow being cast on the ground, suggesting the sun is high in the sky. More light aircraft can be seen in the background - a red one on the left, a yellow one with a high wing in the middle, and a white and orange one on the right. Trees in the distance meet blue sky.
