AirShow

Side view of a small, rather ancient-looking helicopter flying from right to left above a grass airfield. The helicopter is covered in an olive green and brown camouflage scheme, with red "Beware rotor blades" text below the upturned-bucket cockpit. There is black "Army" titles and the serial "XL814" on the tail boom, as well as a red block with white text "Danger" and a white arrow pointing to the spinning tail rotor. It is flying just a few metres above a grass field, with bushes and trees in the distance, under flat grey sky.

Front view of a twin engined jet airliner being towed from right to left, although the white tug doing the towing has turned back to the right, and the plane is slowly turning to follow. The plane is white, with a red and yellow stripe coming from under the forward fuselage, swooping over the wing and back down under the rear fuselage, widening over the wing to fill the rear fuselage and tail. There are red "Hainan Airlines" titles on the upper fuselage, in a Chinese script between the two forward cabin doors, and in English over the wing root. The black registration "B-304K" can be seen on the upper rear fuselage. An intricate yellow and gold flowery design fills the red tale. Grey squares of concrete apron fills the foreground and most of the background, with temporary buildings, white and blue mobile airstairs, and the metal support structure of a new pier under construction in the background.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined BizProp aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is mostly white, with a dark and light brown stripe running along the body, engine cowlings in front of the wings, the tips of the wings, and the top of the tail. The black registration "N889VF" is on the lower rear fuselage, a brown drop-shadow giving it a slight 3-D look. Green grass fills the foreground, with a red metal plate with yellow hazard markings lying on the ground. More grass in the background, leading up to trees at the airfield boundary, with tall metal pylons carrying electrical cables across the image, under flat grey sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner with thrust reversers open in the sides of the engine pods, moving at speed from right to left as it turns off the runway. The plane is mostly white, with a pair of thin stripes coming up from under the nose, over the wing, and along to the end of the body, with a similar stripe on the tail. The black registration "HZ-A5" is on the upper rear fuselage, and is about the only other markings. Green grass fills the foreground, with a runway passing through at the bottom of the frame. A large grey hangar with roofs at various heights dominates the rest of the frame, under pale blue sky.

Side view of a white, twin propellor-engined flying from left to right at a low altitude, it's wings banked to the left, with flaps lowered slightly behind the wings, and it's undercarriage stowed away. A bright light is shining forwards about halfway along each wing. The fuselage is mostly white, with a thin blue, red, and orange stripe running along the body from the nose, gradually getting wider as it moves rearwards, until the blue sweeps up to fill the tail. The number "227" is on the lower forward fuselage in large black print, with the much smaller registration "G-JATP" on the lower rear fuselage. Grey cloudy sky fills the rest of the frame.

Short green grass fills the foreground, with trees lining the airfield perimeter in the background, under cloudy grey skies.
