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 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 white and black, single engined aerobatic light aircraft parked on grass facing to the left. The plane has black top and bottom surfaces, with a thick white stripe running along the body, and gold piping in between. The registration "G-IITI" is on a thick white stripe on the black tail. There is a large, glazed canopy over the cockpit, with small white "Nigel Lamb" titles on the fuselage immediately behind the canopy. There are also glazed panels in the lower fuselage, under the wings. Black spats cover the wheels on the fixed landing gear. Green grass fills the foreground. A large, red brick hangar is on the right of the frame in the background, with smaller green buildings next to it, towards the middle of the frame. The tail of a white light aircraft and a small, camouflaged helicopter are in the background on the left. Cloudy grey sky fills the rest 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 the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land.. The plane is mostly white, with an orange stripe running from the top of the fuselage above the cockpit to the lower fuselage behind the wing, orange engine pods mounted under the wings, orange flap track covers under the wings, and a diagonal orange band wrapped around the rear fuselage and tail. There are diagonal white "EasyJet" titles on the tail, and the black registration "G-EZOU" on the side of the upper rear fuselage and under the outer panels of the left wing, as well as the last 2 letters of the registration "OU" on the open nose wheel doors. The orange up-turned wing-tips have the same diagonal white "EasyJet" titles as on the tail. At the bottom of the frame, a road runs from one side to the other, with a tall, grey, metal fence behind, with tall yellow metal towers with lights on top. A white car is parked in a layby on the bottom left. Blue sky with fluffs of white sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, just a couple of metres above the white numbers on a grass runway. The plane is mostly white, with a light and dark blue stripe running along the body and up into the lower parts of the tail, overlaid with dark blue registration "G-BPVA" on the rear fuselage. The plane has flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and is flying more or less straight and level, suggesting it is just about to land. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees filling the background.

Side view of a rather sleek looking, single engined light aircraft parked taxiing from left to right along a grey tarmac taxiway. The plane is almost entirely red, with the black letters "OXI" (part of the registration) visible on the side of the rear fuselage. A large bubble canopy covers the 2 seat cockpit. Long, spindly legs coming from under the wing carry the main wheels, which have streamlined red spats over the wheels. Green grass fills most of the background, with trees stretching along the top of the frame in the distance.

Side view of a small, single-engined, single-seat light aircraft, parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is mostly cream coloured, with white engine cowling and #wingtips, and the black registration "G-SJMW" on the rear fuselage. There is a gold stripe on the forward fuselage, with a small UK flag, and the black text "SD-1 Minisport". Strong sunlight coming from the top left of the frame is casting a strong shadow on the ground under the plane. Green grass extends into the distance, with several light aircraft parked on both sides of the image, facing in towards the middle. Trees in the distance meet blue sky with a slight hint of haze.
