Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane is mostly white, with the rear fuselage and tail being bright yellow. There are large blue "Aurigny" titles on the rear fuselage, with additional red ".com" text immediately aft. There are smaller, blue "Channel islands" titles on the lower forward, just below the passenger cabin windows. The black registration "G-COBO" is on the front part of the yellow tail, with an image of a stubby little bird with black back and wings and white body, with wings spread wide on the main bit of the tail. Green grass fills most of the foreground, with rolls of razorwire right at the bottom. The tail and centre engine of a white BizJet can be seen in the background poking up over the wings of this plane. Grass and trees in the distance meet cloudy skies with bright patches in the middle.

Side view of a large, twin-engined jet airliner moving at speed from left to right along a black runway. The plane is mostly a light sandy brown, with gold titles in an Arabic script on the upper forward fuselage, followed by larger, gold "Etihad" titles in English, just ahead of the wing root. There is smaller golden text "From Abu Dhabi To The World" on the lower forward fuselage. A geometric pattern, mostly made up of triangles in shades of grey, brown, and white, fills the top and bottom of the rear fuselage, eventually meeting just in front of the tail, which is also covered in this design. The black registration "A6-ETD" is on a white part of the rear fuselage. The large engine pods under the wings are white, with , with a black and brown "F1" logo (a black, upper-case letter "F", on the left, a brown gradient on the right, and a number "1" in white negative space in the middle), and the black and brown text "2017 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix" on the side. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass and a brown taxiway leading up to a grey terminal building visible under the tail on the right, and the white forward fuselage of another plane in front of some trees on the left.

Front-side view of a hight-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway. The plane is largely white, with a red and black stylised letter "L" on the lower forward fuselage, next to red "LoganAir" titles, and a black belly. The black registration "G-LMTG" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage, the last 2 letters "TG" repeated in white on the black, open nose-wheel doors. A red, white, and black tartan covers the tail and part of the upper rear fuselage. Red engine pods are mounted below the front of the wings, with spinning, black, six-bladed propellors almost frozen in place by a high-speed shutter. Green grass fills the foreground, with a black roadway running from side to side through the middle. More grass in the background leads up to a grey runway, with more grass beyond that leading to trees in the distance, and rolling hills being swallowed up in hazy grey sky at the top of the frame.

Side view of a white, twin propellor-engined BizProp rotating as it takes off, moving from right to left with it's nose-wheel lifted off the ground and main wheels just lifting. There is a thin gold and blue stripe running along the body, turning up into the tail and getting wider, the gold stripe wrapping over the top of the body, the blue stripe forming the front of the tail. Ther registration "G-LYDF" is on the lower part of the tail, reflecting low but strong sunlight. The plane's pilot can be seen through the cockpit side window, but the dark cabin doesn't reveal any passengers. Green grass fills most of the foreground, with more grass leading up to a large grey hangar on the right, and the forward fuselage of a white jet airliner with blue and red "Avro RJX" titles on the side on the left of the frame. Leafless trees and grey sky fill the rest of the frame.

Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass visible under the plane in the background. Some out-of-focus planes can be seen in the distance on the right of the frame, parked against a grey terminal building. Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

The engine pods mounted under the wings are the same blue as the rear fuselage, with a smaller version of the text "Jet2Holidays" logo from the lower forward fuselage. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a black terminal building filling the background, a grey jet airliner with a red tail behind this plane on the left. Several tall lighting poles reach into the grim grey sky.
