DC9

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass, it's rear fuselage hanging out over black asphalt. The plane has a white top half and a red lower half, with 3 gold stripes running through the middle, separating the two halves. The white registration "G-BTNV" is on the lower rear fuselage, partially obscured by the left wing. There is small, gold, seemingly hand-written text "Warrior II" on the engine cowling at the front, and small black text "Piper" under a red and blue triangle on the white bottom of the tail. The top of the tail is also red, with 3 gold stripes between the white and red. Green grass fills the foreground, with black asphalt and grey concrete in the background, with more grass in the distance.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft, parked facing to the left and slightly away from the camera in the middle of a grass field. The plane is mostly white, with an orange/grey/orange stripe starting just aft of the propellor and swooping up over the rear fuselage, just aft of the rear cabin window, and the silvery-grey registration "G-IHXD" on the side of the rear fuselage. Close-cropped green grass fills the foreground and much of the background, with slightly longer grass filling the top of the frame.

Low-down close-up of the nose and cockpit of a three-engined jet airliner, parked facing to the right, with the rest of the fuselage and tail visible on the left of the frame. The plane is white on the top, with a grey lower half, and a dark blue stripe, faded to green, running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows. There are white "BEA" titles with large red drop-shadows on the upper forward fuselage. The black registration "G-AWZK" is on the lower rear fuselage, just forward of the side-mounted engines. The centre-engine intake at the bottom of the front of the tail has a red baffle inside, with white text "Trident Three" on the side of the faded green intake, and a quarter of a British flag on the side of the tail. A long yellow pole is attached to the plane's nose-wheel, running out of the lower right of the frame. A set of white air-stairs is parked against the forward door on the other side of the plane. Grey gravel fills the bottom of the frame, with another, military grey aeroplane visible under this plane's nose. Trees and a large, green metal box tower over the plane on the left of the frame. Vivid blue sky fills the rest of the frame.
