Side view of a bright red, 2 seat autogyro, parked facing to the left. The aircraft has a sleek red body, with large, fully glazed doors under a large white rotor, with a smaller white pusher propellor at the top of the rear fuselage. A low, thin red tail boom carries the red tail, a large central fin with smaller end-plates on the horizontal stabiliser. The first couple of letters of the registration is visible on the central fin in grey. There are small, grey and black "M24 Orion" titles on the top of the fuselage, just ahead of the pusher prop. Green grass fills the foreground, with several grey cars lined-up side-by-side behind a grey metal fence in the background, with trees in the distance under hazy grey skies.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left onto a grey runway. The plane is largely white, with a red rear fuselage and tail. There are grey "Helvetic" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, with smaller grey text "Airways" below. The black registration "HB-JVO" is on the upper rear fuselage, just forward of the rear cabin door. There is a large white cross on the red tail, as well as on the red up-turned wingtips. Green grass lines the runway in the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance, under grey-blue sky.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on grass. The plane is largely white, with a black anti-dazzle panel on top of the engines directly in front of the large bubble cockpit canopy, and a red belly. The horizontal stabiliser and the outer panels of the wings are also painted red. There is a blue, white, and red roundel on the rear fuselage, and a blue, white, and red fin flash under the red number "06" on the tail. The number "06" is repeated in white on the front of the engine cowling. The black serial "XX522" is visible under the horizontal stabiliser on the rear fuselage. Green grass fills the foreground and a good part of the background, leading up to trees and bushes lining the airfield perimeter. A man with short dark hair and wearing a yellow hi-viz vest is standing on the far side of the planes rear fuselage, accompanied by a pair of children, with the head of one wearing a hat visible over the top of the plane, and 2 pairs of legs wearing short trousers visible below. Blue sky over rolling hills in the far distance completes the image.

Somewhat grainy side view of a 4 propellor-engined cargo plane parked on a grey taxiway facing to the left. The plane is mostly white, with a green and black stripe running along the body, with green "Atlantic Cargo" titles on the upper fuselage, over the wings, and the black registration "G-LOFA". The tail has a pair of green and black stripes at the top, with a large, black and white image of a stooping falcon over green "Atlantic" titles at the bottom. Large areas of green grass divided by taxiways fill the foreground, with more grass leading up to trees in the distance, under grey sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps drooping down from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about top land. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, and a yellow stripe running along the body below the passenger cabin windows. There are large, dark blue "RyanAir titles on the sides of the forward fuselage, and the registration "G-RUKM" on the upper rear. The tail is dark blue, with a large, yellow, winged Irish harp in the middle. The engine pods are similar to the body, white on top, blue on the bottom, and a yellow stripe through the middle. The tops of trees can be seen at the bottom of the frame, with cloudy sky with patches of pale blue filling the rest.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving at speed from right to left along a black runway. The plane is mostly white, with a pale blue belly, and large light and dark blue "FlyBe" titles above 6 coloured dots (2 yellow, 2 red, 2 purple) on the forward fuselage, a design repeated on the sides of the white engine pods mounted under the wings with additional ".com" text at the end. The light and dark blue "FlyBe" titles are repeated in a larger form but without the dots on the rear fuselage and tail. The black registration "G-FBJI" is on the upper rear fuselage. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the sides of the runway. A pair of large grey hangars dominate the background on the right, behind a large green metal wall. Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet 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 mostly a light blue, with a white belly, and red "TUI" titles on the forward fuselage. The white registration ""G-TAWM" is on the upper rear fuselage next to a small British flag.
