Dusseldorf (Page 2)

Side-view of a single-engined, high-winged light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, just centimetres between the grass runway and the plane's wheels. The plane is largely white, with a blue and brown stripe running along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-TIFG" on the side of the rear fuselage. White spats cover all 3 wheels, with blue stripe running along each one2 people can be seen i the rather cramped, fully glazed cockpit. The plane is casting a strong shadow on the ground quite a way behind it, suggesting that the sun is about 3 quarters of the way up the left of the frame. Green grass fills the rest of the image.

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.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft taxing from right to left across a grass airfield. The plane is a silvery grey, with a black and red stripe swirling it's way along the body, and the black registration "G-CGVT" on the lower rear fuselage. There is black text "Mainair Flying School", alongside a telephone number on the rear half of the tail. Metallic grey spats with black and red stripes cover the wheels on the undercarriage. Two people can be seen in the cockpit through the comically oversized bubble canopy. Green grass fills the foreground and most of the background, with trees on the airfield perimeter, rolling hills in the far distance, and blue sky at the top of the frame.

Elevated side view of a single-engined tri-plane on display facing to the right in a museum. The doped-cloth skin of the plane has a streaky, light brown colour, similar to varnished oak. As well as having 3 stacked wings at the front, there are 3 horizontal stabilisers at the rear. The black words "Bullseye" and "Avroplane" are visible on the sides of the rear fuselage. Creamy-grey floor fills moist of the foreground and part of the background, with a military jet fighter plane visible at the top of the frame.

Side view of a white, high-winged, twin propellor-engined light aircraft, parked facing to the left in a brown brick hangar. The plane has a pair of green stripes running along the body, widening as they move rearwards, and a green tail outlined in white. The fixed undercarriage has spats covering the top of the wheels, with the top half painted green, the lower half in white. The registration "G-BFBD" is on the rear fuselage in black. Several light aircraft can be seen parked in the background on the left, behind this plane's nose. Brown brick walls stretch across the background, with grey vertical metal support beams at intervals. Boarded-up windows fill the top of the walls.

Low side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is almost entirely purple, with an orange and purple band around the rear fuselage, and a white tail-cone and tail. There are white., billboard-style "FlyBe" titles above 6 white dots on the side of the forward fuselage, with similar diagonal titles in light and dark blue on the tail, over 2 orange, 2 red, and 2 purple dots. The white titles are also inverted on the underside of the fuselage. The engine pods mounted out on the wings are also purple, with the main undercarriage hanging down on long, spindly legs from the rear. The black registration "G-JECZ" is on the side of the tail-cone right at the rear. Flat grey clouds fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined, World War 2-era bomber aircraft taxiing along a runway from left to right. The plane is covered in an olive-green and grey camouflage scheme, with thick black and white bands around the lower rear fuselage. There are very pale letters "HT-E" either side of a blue, white, and red roundel outlined in yellow. There is a blue, white, and red fin flash on the lower part of the tail, above the black serial "RR299" on the upper rear fuselage. Lush green grass fills the foreground, with more grass leading up to a house and a fire truck in the distance, with trees beyond, under hazy grey skies.
