Side view of a high-winged, 4 propellor-engined military cargo plane parked on a black runway, with the red and white tips of the propellors a spinning blur indicating they are running full tilt, flaps extended from behind the wings, and the rear cargo loading ramp almost fully deployed, with a man wearing olive-green fatigues crouched by the end of the ramp. The plane is covered in an olive-green and grey camouflage scheme, with a blue and red roundel on the rear fuselage, next to the black serial number "VX232". There is a black number "232" on the nose under the cockpit, repeated on the tail, where it is sandwiched between a British flag above, and a red and blue fin flash below. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass leading up to a tall grey hangar on the left, and a lower blue hangar on the left, with a couple of grey fighter jets in front of the latter. Grey sky fills the rest 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.

Front side view of a bright red, high-winged, twin propellor-engined parked facing to the left and slightly towards the camera. The plane's roof and the tops of the wings and engines are a shiny black, and black "British Antarctic Survey" are on the lower forward fuselage under the passenger cabin windows. A door in the rear fuselage is hanging open. Metal skids are mounted on the undercarriage, the wheels poking through the bottom. There is a white board on a wooden easel which has indecipherable text about this plane which partially obscures the nose on the left of the frame. Crowds of people behind a low metal fence are visible in the background, under flat white skies.

Side view of a small helicopter hovering a few metres above a grassy field, facing to the left. The copter is in a metallic blue livery, with a large golden zig-zag stripe on the side of the fuselage, partially missing because the doors aren't being carried on this flight, and the golden registration "G-GHIZZ" on the long, thin tail boom. A man is sitting in the left seat in the cockpit, holding a camera as he takes a photo towards the viewer. Green grass in the background leads up to trees stretching across the frame in the distance, and a tall electricity pylon with cables that reach across the frame, under cloudy white sky.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, just a couple of metres above the white numbers on a grass runway. The plane is mostly white, with a light and dark blue stripe running along the body and up into the lower parts of the tail, overlaid with dark blue registration "G-BPVA" on the rear fuselage. The plane has flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and is flying more or less straight and level, suggesting it is just about to land. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees filling the background.

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

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner accelerating from right to left along a black runway. The plane is mostly white, with multi-coloured "Small Planet" titles along the fuselage, successive letters in red, blue, purple, yellow, and green. The black registration "LY-SPE" is on the lower rear fuselage. The engine pods mounted under the wings are a deep blue, with white "SmallPlanet.Aero" text. The tail is dark blue, with a stylised multi-coloured globe and yellow stars. Lush green grass fills the foreground, with tall green trees in the distance behind the plane on either side, under blue sky with smears of cloud.

Side view of a white military transport helicopter parked facing to the left on a black tarmac taxiway. The helicopter has a blue stripe running along the body and tail boom, with a zig-zag down to below the cockpit windows. Sponsons on the rear fuselage house the main landing gear. A large panel that normally covers the engine has been dropped down, exposing the inner workings. A large sign has been placed against the nose, giving some detail about the aircraft. In the background, crowds of people are visible behind waist-level metal fences, with some tents and other exhibits behind them. Dismal grey skies fill the rest of the frame.
