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 engined jet airliner moving from right to left at speed along a runway with flaps slightly extended behind the wings, and the nose raised slightly, suggesting it is taking off.The plane is largely white, with large, blue, billboard-style "IcelandAir" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, partially covering the passenger cabin windows. The registration "TF-ICC" is on the upper rear fuselage, next to a small Icelandic flat. A thin light blue stripe wraps around the rear fuselage and the leading edge of the tail, with a thicker dark blue stripe wraps around the tail-cone and the rest of the tail, with a white, waving, double ribbon in the middle. A black taxiway winds it's way through a large grassed area in the foreground, with more grass visible under the planes in the background. The dark blue and yellow tail of another jet airliner is visible over the rear fuselage of this one, with trees beyond that in the distance, under grim grey sky.

Side view of a twin jet-engined, military light bomber taxiing from left to right along a black runway with it's wings folded up. The plane is covered in an olive-green and grey camouflage, with blue and red roundels on the lower forward fuselage, under the cockpit, and under the outer wing panels, the latter visible because the wings are raised into their stowed position. There is a blue and red fin flash on the tail, next to the grey number "864". The cockpit canopy is in the slid back position, with both crew members visible in their tandem seats. Green grass lines the runway in the foreground, with a large grey building dominating the background on the right, with rolling, tree covered hills fading into the hazy grey sky.

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.

Rear side view of a red, 2 seat autogyro taxiing from right to left with the main rotor locked in place. It is basically a red fibreglass shell wrapped around a metal frame, with a pair of open tandem cockpits with large perspex windshields, with a motor bolted on the back powering a pusher propellor, and another metal frame sticking backwards out of the bottom carrying the red tail on an angular metal boom. An uncovered nosewheel sticks out of the bottom of the fuselage, with a pair of rear wheel on struts, partially covered with red sponsons stick out to the sides from under the engine. The silver registration is on the red tail right at the back.Several metal poles stick out from the engine, just above the rear cockpit, supporting and providing some control to the large, 2-bladed main rotor. Both cockpit seats are filled, with people wearing matching flying suits, with red arms and legs and black bodies, as well as white full-face helmets. Grey tarmac taxiway fills the foreground, with 2 wings of an old, brown brick office building in the background, close enough to possibly be hit if the main rotor was spinning, with a white, high-winged, light aircraft parked between the wings.

Side view of a high-winged, twin engined jet airliner lined up waiting for take off on a grey runway. The plane is largely white with a dark blue belly, and dark blue "British Airways" titles on the lower forward fuselage. A twisted, red and blue ribbon is on the upper forward fuselage, immediately aft of the cockpit windows, and the black registration "OY-NCL" is on the upper rear fuselage. The tail is white, with rippling red stripes either side of a rippling dark blue triangle in the middle. The horizontal stabiliser, mounted at the top of the tail, is casting it's own shadow on the top and front of the tail, which suggests that the sun is up in the top left corner somewhere. Green grass fills the foreground, lining both sides of the runway. Trees in the distance meet grey clouds and blue sky.

Low front view of a 3 engined jet airliner parked facing to the right on gravel. The plane is white on top, with a grey lower half, and a thick stripe that used to be dark blue but is now faded to dark green running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows. There are red and white letters "BEA" on the upper forward fuselage, and a partial UK flag on the now-green tail. The underside of the wings is red. A long yellow pushback pole is attached to the nosewheel. White airstairs are attached to the front and rear cabin doors on the far side of the plane. Trees fill the background on the left of the frame, with a rather square and boxy green metal frame taking up most of the rest of the background, and the grey tail of another plane on the right, all under gorgeous blue sky.

There 2 thick, white, waving stripes on the tail, with a pale blue diagonal stripe running down the front of the tail and across the rear fuselage. Trees in the distance fill the bottom of the frame, with cloudy grey skies filling the top of the frame.

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.

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.
