Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with grey, lowercase "vueling" and yellow "com" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The tail and rear fuselage start off with small grey dots towards the front, the dots gradually getting larger and merging into a solid wall of grey, with a single yellow dot up towards the top. Green grass lines the sides of a pair of black taxiways in the foreground, and more in the background separates the plane from a black runway, with trees in the distance meeting grey sky.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is mostly a glossy black, with a thick red stripe running along the body from the nose, then sweeping under the body just aft of the passenger cabin, and another red stripe covering a fillet at the front of the tail, before running diagonally up and across the tail, getting wider as it goes. The red registration "G-BHEH" is on the side of the rear fuselage. Grteen grass fills the foreground, and much of the background, leading up to trees on the airfield perimeter. Flat grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

A single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left in the middle of a grass field. The plane is mostly white, with a pair of thin grey stripes starting from the engine cowling, running backwards and getting wider as it moves rearwards, under a single, thin red stripe, with a similar design on the spats over the undercarriage. The text "Piper Archer II" is on the upper rear fuselage, just behind the cockpit, followed by a block of text in an Arabic script, and a small Palestinian flag with the words "Free Palestine" across the middle in white and black text. Larger grey and red diagonal bands can be seen on the white tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with several light aircraft parked on more grass in the background, leading up to trees meeting grey sky in the distance.

Side View of a single engined, single seat bi-plane light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low latitude, less than a metre above a grass runway. The plane is mostly red, with a pair of white stripes running along the body, overlaid with the white registration "G-HOON", with similar white stripes running the length of the spats on the main wheels, under the wings. The front of the tail is red, with white "Pitts S-1S"text, while the rear is covered in a red and white checkerboard pattern, which can also be seen on the outer panels of the under side of the wings. A person wearing a white flying helmet can be seen in the single seat cockpit, under a domed canopy. Grrn grass fills the rest of the frame, with the plane casting a strong shadow on the ground behind it, suggesting that the sun is coming from the top left corner.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving at speed from right to left along a black runway, with flaps hanging down from the front and rear of the wing, as well as spoilers raised on top of the rear of the wing, and thrust reverser doors open in the rear of the engine pods under the wings, suggesting it is decelerating hard after landing. The plane is largely silver, with black "SkyTeam" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and smaller blue "Czech Airlines" titles just aft of a red triangle with silver "CSA" text in the middle on the lower forward fuselage, just ahead of the wing. There is some elaborate dark blue scrollwork on the side of the rear fuselage, just ahead of the black registration "OK-PET" on the upper rear, above small Czech and EU flags. The tail is the same dark blue, with silver "SkyTeam" text in a semi-circle, with a silver crescent completing the circle, and a smaller, silver version of the scrollwork logo in the middle. A grey taxiway stretches across the bottom of the frame, with a strip of green grass separating that from the runway, with more grass in the background leading up to trees and bushes in the distance, with a hill vanishing into the grey sky beyond that.

Front side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the right, nose-in to it's gate, as seen from inside the terminal building. The plane is largely white, with large, red, apparently hand written "Leisure" titles on the forward fuselage and a thick blue strip running along the body under a thin red pinstripe. The black registration "G-UKLJ" is on the upper rear fuselage, with the last two letters, LJ, repeated on the open nose-gear doors. The tail is white, with half of a waving UK flag in the middle. The bed of a white and pink catering truck is raised to the open rear door of the plane, with a low, white, baggage belt by an open cargo door in the belly just behind the wings, and another cargo door open in front of the wings. In the background, on the right, a brown and cream terminal building stretches across the frame from the right, with a couple of planes parked in front, with pale blue sky filling the rest of the frame.
