AOM

Front side view of a microlight aircraft parked on grass, facing to the right, with its left wingtip resting on the ground. What little fuselage there is, is a metal frame covered in a carbon fibre shell, with a pair of tandem seats in an open cockpit on top, with a small engine driving a pusher propellor immediately behind, suspended under a large, triangular parasol wing. A small nosewheel is embedded in the forward shell, with main gear covered in yellow spats are on the end of outriggers attached just in front of the engine. The carbon fibre shell is bright yellow, with the wing being mostly yellow, and blue leading edges and cream trailing edge. The black registration "G-MTMW" is on the underside of the left side of the wing. Green grass fills most of the bottom of the frame, with another microlight with a yellow and purple wing on the right of the background, and a single engined light aircraft taxiing away from the camera on the left. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner facing to the left on a grey runway. The plane has a pale blue belly, and pale and dark blue "FlyBe" titles above a series of yellow, red, and purple dots on the forward fuselage. These titles are repeated on the sides of the engine cowlings with additional "[dot] com" titles, as well as on the tail, minus the dots. Green grass fills the bottom of the frame, with the razor-wire on the top of the perimeter fence visible right at the bottom. More grass in the background leads up to a large grey hangar in the distance on the right, and trees on the left, under blue-grey sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway surrounded by grass. The plane is mostly white, with a pale green-bluebelly, which sweeps up to fill most of the tail. There are pale, green-blue, billboard-style "FlyNas" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, with smaller titles between the cockpit and the forward door. Additional titles in an Arabic script are on the upper rear fuselage, with the black registration "CS-TFZ" below. A grey runway lined by green grass stretches across the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to a blue and white light aircraft visible under this plane on the right of the frame, and a white high-winged airliner on the left, with another pair of large jet aircraft in the distance, under layered grey-whiter clouds.
