BizJet

Side view of a twin propellor-engined, World War 2-era fighter-bomber accelerating from right to left along a grey tarmac runway, with it's tail wheel raised off the ground, suggesting it is taking off. The plane has a grey and olive green camouflage scheme on the upper body and upper wing surfaces, with grey belly and undersides of the wings. There are 3 white and 2 black bands under the lower rear fuselage. The pale mint green letters "E-HT" are either side of a blue, white, and red roundel, outlined in yellow, on the rear fuselage, with the black serial "RR299" just after, under a red, white, and blue fin-flash on the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees on small hills in the background.

Low side view of a white, twin engined Bizjet flying from left to right at a very low altitude. The plane has it's undercarriage lowered, and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue, red, and grey stripe running along the body from the nose, getting slightly wider and sweeping up in to the lower reaches of the tail. A similar stripe is on the outer face of the up-turned wing-tips. Bright but hazy sky with hints of blue fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a high-winged, 4 engined jet airliner on static display at an airshow, parked facing to the left. The plane is almost entirely white, with black "Lufthansa" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "G-JAYV" on the lower rear. Below the registration is a panel with a slightly different shade of white, covering the registration it will have after delivery, next to a small German flag. The tail is a dark blue, with a yellow circle in the middle, containing a stylised blue flying bird, and the white letters "RF" in the top right corner. A large expanse of tarmac fills the foreground, with a row of cars on the left, and people walking around in front of the plane. Other planes can be seen in the background on the left of the planes, with a red tent on the right, and crowds of people walking around on both sides. Flat white sky fills the rest of the frame.

Front side view of a glossy black helicopter parked facing to the right on grass, with the motor slowly spinning and the pilots door open. The grey registration "N520EA" is on the side of the engine pods on top of the fuselage, and grey text "MD520N" is on the top of the twin tails at the end of the long, fat tail boom. Notably, there is no vertical rotor at the end of the tail boom. There are 2 people sitting in the heavily glazed cockpit, the person sitting in the right-hand seat wearing a white shirt, and using their hands to demonstrate something to the person in the left hand seat, who is wearing a blue shirt. Green grass fills the foreground, with people sitting or standing behind a green metal mesh fence in the background, and a curved, green corrugated metal hangar behind them on the left, and a large brown brick building on the right. Pretty much everyone in the photo is wearing sunglasses, so it is probably a sunny day.

Front view of a twin engined BizJet taxiing from right to left towards the camera on a wide grey taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a green squiggle with a grey drop shadow running from under the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, forwards along the body under the passenger cabin window, then up between the cockpit windows and the main door, then rearwards again, over the top of the cabin windows, stopping about half-way along the body S similar strip runs from the bottom left to top right of the tail. There are a pair of bright lights shining in the wing root, creating a slight flare in the image, and causing bright reflections on the fuselage. A large grey and blue hangar dominates the background on the left, with cloudy grey sky filling the rest of the frame.

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 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 twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey runway. The plane is primarily dark blue, with large white "Family Life" titles on the forward, with much smaller "Hotels" text below the last 2 letters. A pair of cartoon characters, an orange teddy bear and a yellow dog, are on the rear fuselage, either side of the white registration "G-FDZG". The tail is a light blue, with a red winky face that looks like the letters "T", "U", and "i" squished together. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees stretching across the background, under grey sky.

Side view of a 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 is largely white, with a green stripe starting in the middle of the upper fuselage, running forward along the top of the body, down under the cockpit windows, then back along the lower body, and up into the tail, and the green registration "D-AJOY" on the tail-cone, partially obscured by one of the engines on the rear fuselage. A grey taxiway fills the foreground, with a patch of green grass in the bottom right corner, and more grass in the background, leading up to several jet airliners partially obscured by jelly pouring out of the rear of the planes engines. Flat grey sky fills the rest of the frame.
