B737 – MancAvGeek

Side view of a long, thin, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is in a pale cream colour, with a gold and red pinstripe running along the body, under the passenger cabin windows. There are large, gold, "Etihad" titles on the upper centre fuselage, with a smaller version in an Arabic script on the upper forward fuselage. There is more Arabic text, in gold, on the lower forward fuselage. There is a large sticker with black and gold text on the upper rear fuselage, with a large black and gold "F1", then smaller text "2016 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix". Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a mobile set of airstairs with a brown perspex awning over the top seeming to drive towards this plane, and a white van driving from right to left by an airbridge on the left of the frame that seems to hang out of nowhere. Low, grey cargo sheds stretch across the background, with several planes parked nose-in towards them. Taller office buildings and hotels nestled in trees are in the distance, under hazy grey sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left on a grey runway. The plane is largely white, with a purple, orange, and gold stripe running along the body from just behind the cockpit, with the gold section at the bottom getting slightly wider as it moves backwards, running under the rear fuselage. There are purple "Singapore Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to a large Singapore" flag. The tail is purple, with a stylised golden flying bird with wings extended, and an orange stripe on the rear of the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the side of the runway, with a large terminal building in the background, visible under the plane, with several planes parked next to it. Pale blue sky with grey smears of thin cloud fill the top half of the frame.

Side view of a white, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on grass. The plane looks very sleek, with smooth flowing lines, and a large bubble canopy over the side-by-side cockpit. The plane has a grey belly, with a thin red stripe separating that from the white, and red registration "G-CGLT" on the side of the rear fuselage. The fixed, nose-wheel undercarriage has white sponsons over the wheels. Green grass fills the foreground, with a strong shadow being cast on the ground, suggesting the sun is high in the sky. More light aircraft can be seen in the background - a red one on the left, a yellow one with a high wing in the middle, and a white and orange one on the right. Trees in the distance meet blue sky.

Front view of a blue, 2 seat gyrocopter parked facing the camera. The aircraft has no wings, but instead a rotor like a helicopter, but also has a pusher propellor at the rear. The fuselage is dark blue on the top surfaces, with a creamy white belly. It is parked on a small concrete slab surrounded by grass, with a brown wooden fence separating the airfield from parked cars, with tall trees behind, under pale grey skies.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner with red billboard-style "FlyPGS[dot]com" titles on the forward fuselage, yellow upturned wingtips with white winged horses in the middle, and a yellow tail with red "Pegasus" titles. The plane is flying from left to right at a very low altitude, about to land on the black runway. Green grass fills the foreground, either side of the runway, with a white sign with red text "Fire training area" in front of a black fence. The blue fuselage of a plane and trees fill the rest of the background, under grey skies.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked on tarmac facing to the right. The plane is mostly white, with a black belly, and a thick yellow stripe running along the body, over-laid with the black registration "G-BKAE" on the rear fuselage, the last letter partially obscured by the slightly up-turned wing-tip. White spats cover the fixed main landing gear, under the wings. A man with short dark hair and beard, wearing a blue top, can be seen in the cockpit, possibly running an engine test, as the propellor on the nose looks to be slightly blurred. Black tarmac apron fills the foreground, with a green hangar on the right of the frame in the background, with cars parked behind the plane on the left, with brown brick buildings beyond that. Flat white sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a long, thin, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left as it turns on to a grey runway. The plane is mostly white, with grey "Scandinavian" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with additional "Airlines" titles on the lower forward fuselage. Smaller "Scandinavian" titles are on the sides of the white engine pods, mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, just in front of and below the tail. The blue registration "EC-MLC" is on the lower rear fuselage, just aft of a small Spanish flag, which itself is just aft of a stylised golden crown. On the upper rear fuselage, there is a 9*3 grid of coloured dots, representing the flags of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, the 3 countries for whom SAS is the nominal flag carrier. Slightly yellowing grass fills the foreground, along the side of the runway, while grey hangars are visible over the top of the plane in the background, under blue skies.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with a maroon stripe running along the body, covering the lower deck windows, and maroon "Qatar Airways" titles on the forward fuselage, in an Arabic script between the upper and lower deck windows, and in English below the lower deck windows. The tail is also maroon, with the white head of a horned, goat-like animal inside the outline of a white circle. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a large grey hangar in the background on the left, several pale blue fuel tanks towards the middle, and a selection of other airport buildings on the right. Trees in the distance slowly vanish into a bright but hazy sky.
