CrossAir

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.

Side view of a small, sleek, single engined light aircraft flying from right to left t a very low altitude, just a few metres above a grass runway. The plane is a bright scarlet red, with a large glazed canopy over the 2-seat cockpit, with only the rear seat filled. Long, spindly undercarriage legs extend down from the front of the wings, with large red spats over the main wheels. The spinner on the propellor is a gloss black, , as is the registration "G-COXI" on the sides of the rear fuselage. Greengrass fills the foreground at the bottom of the frame, with trees filling the background, with rolling hills and pale blue sky in the distance.
