DC10

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The planes id largely white with partially obscured "Thomas Cook" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, and the black registration "LY-VEB" on the lower rear fuselage. A diagonal light grey and orange band covers the rear fuselage, below the grey tail, which has a large yellow and orange love heart in the middle. Vivid blue sky with occasional light fluffs of thin cloud fills the background.

Side view of a bright orange, twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage still lowered, flaps slightly extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. There are large, white "EasyJet.com" titles written across the fuselage, with smaller "EasyJet" titles on the engine pods under the wings, as well as diagonally on the tail. There is a large white number "200" on the forward fuselage just under the cockpit windows, and the black registration "G-EZUI" on the lower rear fuselage. Pale blue sky with white patches of cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner parked facing to the left. The plane is mostly white, with a blue belly, and blue "Kabo Air" titles on the upper forward fuselage, between the upper and lower deck cabin windows. A blue circle with a red outline is on the tail, with a stylised white lightning bolt (or possibly upper case letter "N") in the middle. A tall, grey lighting pole in the foreground partially obscures the tail-cone and tail. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with various white airport trucks and mobile airstairs gathered in the bottom right corner. Trees fill the background, under grey skies.

Front side view of a microlight aircraft parked on grass, facing to the right, with its left wingtip resting on the ground. What little fuselage there is, is a metal frame covered in a carbon fibre shell, with a pair of tandem seats in an open cockpit on top, with a small engine driving a pusher propellor immediately behind, suspended under a large, triangular parasol wing. A small nosewheel is embedded in the forward shell, with main gear covered in yellow spats are on the end of outriggers attached just in front of the engine. The carbon fibre shell is bright yellow, with the wing being mostly yellow, and blue leading edges and cream trailing edge. The black registration "G-MTMW" is on the underside of the left side of the wing. Green grass fills most of the bottom of the frame, with another microlight with a yellow and purple wing on the right of the background, and a single engined light aircraft taxiing away from the camera on the left. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.

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.

Side-view of a single-engined, high-winged light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, just centimetres between the grass runway and the plane's wheels. The plane is largely white, with a blue and brown stripe running along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-TIFG" on the side of the rear fuselage. White spats cover all 3 wheels, with blue stripe running along each one2 people can be seen i the rather cramped, fully glazed cockpit. The plane is casting a strong shadow on the ground quite a way behind it, suggesting that the sun is about 3 quarters of the way up the left of the frame. Green grass fills the rest of the image.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is covered in wavy black and white stripes, looking vaguely like a zebra would if it had wings. Bright green grass fills the foreground and much of the background, with trees in the distance under blue skies. The tail of another light aircraft can be seen in the background on the left, silver at the front and a black and yellow checkerboard pattern at the rear, overlaid with a red star outlined in yellow, and the black letters "FA" under the horizontal stabiliser.

Side view of a small, single-engined biplane light aircraft taxiing from left to right on a grass airfield. The plane is mostly red, with a pair of white stripes running along the body, overlaid with the white registration "G-HOON" on the rear fuselage. White text on the tail reads "Pitts", in a rather ornate font, with smaller "S-1S" text in a more normal typeface below. The rear, moving portion of the tail is painted in a red and white checkerboard pattern. The upper surfaces of the wings and horizontal stabiliser are covered in a red and white sunburst pattern. The plane's pilot can be seen through the close, blue-tinted cockpit canopy, wearing a grey cloth flying helmet. Short green grass fills the foreground, with slightly longer grass filling the background.

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.
