AdvancedTurboProp

Rear view of a squat and boxy, high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner facing slightly to the right but mostly away from the camera. The plane has a grey upper half and dark blue lower, with a thin red pinstripe on the lower fuselage, ending in a half arrowhead at the front. There are black "British Airways Express" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The top half of the tail are dark blue, with a large grey heraldic crest in the middle. The lower half is grey, with a dark blue and red triangle at the rear. A group of people, some wearing bright yellow hi-viz jackets, are clustered around the left rear of the plane. Grey concrete apron fills most of the background, with A pair of white airbridges hanging off the side of a grey building on the left of the frame, and a larger jet airliner wearing the same livery nosing into frame from the right.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at low angle with the undercarriage retracted and only a small amount of flaps from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is doing a flypast as part of a display routine. The plane is mostly white, with black "EuroDirect" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and an enormous, black, lower-case letter "e" , tilted slightly on it's side, on the rear fuselage. The tail is yellow, with a large, black, lower=case letter "e" in the middle. Grey sky fills the background.

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.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane is mostly white, with a red and yellow stripe swooping from under the lower forward fuselage and over the wing, with the yellow descending back under the rear fuselage, while the red takes over the rear fuselage and tail, with additional yellow swirls at the top and on the tail. There are red "Hainan Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, in a Chinese script forward if the mid-cabin door, and in English aft of that door. The black registration "B-304K" is on the upper rear fuselage. Grey concrete apron and black tarmac taxiway fill the foreground, with trees stretching across the background under hazy grey sky. In the middle of the background, a green fire training rig, vaguely resembling a 3-engined Boeing 747, is sitting there looking a bit sorry for itself.

Side view of a white, twin propellor-engined airliner parked on a runway facing to the left, it's propellors blurred as they spin. The plane has red "LoganAir" titles on the upper forward fuselage, followed by black text "Scotlands Airline". The registration "G-LGNT" is on the upper rear fuselage, in black. The tail is covered in a red, black, and white tartan pattern. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to a large grey building in the distance. Pale blue sky with smears of grey cloud fill the rest of the frame
