Side view of a twin engined jet airliner facing to the right but being pushed back to the left by an almost-out-of-frame low-slung red truck attached to the nose-wheel by a long red pole. The plane is largely white, with red "Jet2Holidays" titles on the lower forward fuselage, the word "Holidays" having a yellow to red vertical gradient. There is orange text "Package holidays you can trust" on the upper fuselage, over the wings, and the black registration "G-HLYF" on the side of the upper rear fuselage. A diagonal blue band wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with a red, orange, and yellow sunburst design filling much of that blue space. The engine pods mounted under the wings are the same blue as the rear fuselage, with a smaller version of the text "Jet2Holidays" logo from the lower forward fuselage. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a black terminal building filling the background, a grey jet airliner with a red tail behind this plane on the left. Several tall lighting poles reach into the grim grey sky.

Side view of a single-engined, high-winged, light aircraft parked facing to the right on short-mown grass. The plane is mostly white, with a red and green swirly stripe running along the body, the swooping up into the top of the tail and back down again, overlaid with the blue registration "G-BNTP" on the side of the rear fuselage. White support struts come from the side of the lower forward fuselage, stretching diagonally up and out towards a point about a quarter of the way along the wing. A rope dangles from a hook where the strut meets the wing, attached to a red traffic cone resting on the ground, acting as a weight in high winds. Short green grass fills the foreground, as well as much of the background, with a pair of light aircraft visible on the left of the frame, the nearest one white and blue with a white high wing, and the other silver, with a yellow and black checkerboard pattern on the rear of the tail, over laid with a red star. Trees in the far distance meet fluffs of white cloud that fill the top of the frame, with blue patches peeking through.

Side view of a white, twin engined BizJet with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway. The plane a red triangle in the black outline of a circle under the cockpit windows, over black text "FAI Air Ambulance" under the cabin door. There is the black web address "WWWDotFlightAmbulanceDotCom" above the passenger cabin windows, and the red text "Ambulance" on the sides of the white engine pods. The large black registration "D-CFAS" is on the white tail, under a small German flag. Tall, thin, white up-turned wing-tips stretch up from the ends of the wings. Green grass fills the foreground, with loops of blurry, out-of-focus razor-wire almost but not quite getting in the way. More grass in the background leads up to an expanse of trees in the distance, under grey-blue sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black runway, with flaps extended from the front and rear of the wings. It is turning off the runway onto a taxiway, which suggests it has just landed. The plane is largely white, with a thick purple stripe running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows, with an orange pinstripe below, over a thin gold stripe that gets wider as it moves rearwards, curving down to run under the rear fuselage. There are purple "Singapore Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just forward of a small Singapore flag. The up-turned wingtips are mostly the same purple, with a bright orange diagonal stripe along the trailing edge. This design is repeated on the tail, with the addition of a highly stylised, golden flying bird in the middle. Green grass fills the foreground, a black sign with a pair of white chevrons pointing left in the bottom right corner, and a black metal mesh fence on black support struts in the lower right. More grass in the background leads up to trees in the distance, under blue-grey sky.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is mostly dark blue, with a thick white stripe running along the bottom of the body, with a thinner white pinstripe running from the nose to the tail, under the cockpit, overlaid with the white registration "G-AWVA" on the side of the rear fuselage. There is a white stripe near the top of the tail, with the word "Cessna" in black. Orange and white traffic cones are attached to the underside of support struts running from the bottom of the fuselage to the underside of the mid-point of the wings by a long blue rope, acting as weights in case of high winds. Green grass fills the foreground. A silver light aircraft is in the background, a blue cover over the cockpit area, with it's silver, yellow, and black tail towering over this plane. More grass in the background leads up to trees and bushes beyond that, with rolling hills meeting grey sky in the distance.

There is a thick, very pale blue stripe running along the body, overlaid with green "Cathay Pacific" on the forward fuselage. There is a thick green band around the tail, with a thick, white brush stroke resembling a flying bird in the middle, a design repeated in a smaller form under the cockpit. An array of blue and white or yellow and white planes are lined up, facing in various directions in the background. Rows of trees stretch across the rear of the frame, marking the edge of the airfield, under grey skies.
