ATR42

Side front view of a high-winged, single engined light aircraft parked facing to the left in a field of grass. The plane is mostly white, with a blue and red swirly stripe running along the body and up into the tail, overlaid with the blue registration "G-BNTP" on the side of the rear fuselage. An orange traffic cone, filled with weights, is attached to the underside of each wing, weighing it down in case of high winds. Another plane can be seen in the background on the left, under this planes wing, with more grass, and trees in the distance visible under the wing on the right. Flat white sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a long and thin twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from right to left along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a thin red and blue stripe running along the body, and large blue "BinAir" titles under the cockpit windows. There are large blue letters "BA" on the tail, and the black registration "D-CPSW" on the rear fuselage, next to a large German flag. Green grass lines the taxiway in the foreground, with a roll of razorwire on top of a fence visible right at the bottom. More grass lines taxiways and a runway in the background, leading up to trees vanishing in to mist in the distance.

Low side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from behind the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly a glossy light blue with a white belly, the 2 colours separated by a dark blue stripe running along the body. There are white "KLM" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with blue "KLM" titles on the sides of the white tail and white engine pods. The rear fuselage and the wing-tips are blurred and grainy, with blooms of colour along shiny surfaces and edges. Lush blue sky fills the background, with hints of cloud on the left of the frame.

Side view of a single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane sis in a vaguely military-looking olive-green colour scheme, with large, seemingly random patches of white in several places, and the white registration "D-EARY" on the side of the rear fuselage. The engine cowling on the nose is bright yellow, with a large image of a rather aggressive-looking bird with it's mouth open in a screech, with a red banner with the words "Screaming Eagle" underneath. The tail has a black and white large checkerboard pattern on the front half, the rear half being bright yellow with a black and white fin flash towards the top. A section at the rear of the tail has a finer black and white checkerboard pattern. Green grass fills the rest of the frame, except for a dirt track crossing from one side to the other.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with blue "Air France" titles on the upper forward fuselage, the black registration "F-HEPD" on the upper rear, and 3 diagonal blue stripes on the tail, getting narrower as they move rearwards, followed by a single red stripe. There is a single bright light on the nose-wheel, flaring in the camera lens. A black runway and a wide grassed area fill the foreground, with a larger, white, twin-engined jet airliner in the background. Trees beyond that meet flat grey sky.

Side view of an extremely orange, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a black taxiway. The plane is almost entirely orange, with billboard-style white "easyjet.com" titles on the side of the fuselage, the white number "200" under the cockpit windows, and diagonal white "easyJet" titles on the tail. Even the wingtip fences are painted orange, while the black registration "G-EZUI" is the only break in the colour scheme. Lush green grass fills the foreground, with more visible under the plane in the background, and trees on the skyline in the distance. Flat white sky fills the top of the frame.

There is a green hangar in the background on the right, with more green buildings in the distance on the right, under flat grey skies.
