Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and undercarriage lowered, suggesting the plane is about to land. The plane is mostly white and the front, and a silvery grey at the rear, separated by a diagonal red band that runs from under the body forward of the wings to over the top just in front of the tail. Ther are red "Air Arabia Dot Com" titles on the forward fuselage, in English above the passenger windows and in an Arabic script below the windows. The tail is red, with a large image of a white flying bird, a logo repeated in red on the side of the engine pods under the wings. The black registration "CN-NML" is on the side of the upper rear fuselage, just above the rearmost cabin windows, , just ahead of a small Morrocan flag, with small, red text "Airbus A320" just below those windows. The dark grey shadow of the wing can be seen on the lower rear fuselage, suggesting that the sun is fairly low off to the right of the frame. Pale blue sky with occasional wisps of white cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Front side view of a brown, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left and slightly to the left of the camera along a grey taxiway. There is large, black text "I Heart Cook s Club" on the side of the forward fuselage, the word "Heart" being replaced by a large yellow love heart symbol, covering the passenger cabin windows, with smaller text "New Generation Hotels" below. This latter text is repeated on the upper rear fuselage, with the black registration "G-TCDV" next to a small UK flag on the lower rear. A diagonal yellow band wraps around the rear fuselage, immediately followed by a diagonal grey band that wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with another, much larger, yellow love heart filling the tail. The engine pods, hanging under the wings, are the same bright yellow. Grey concrete taxiway fills the foreground, with a white jet airliner with large blue text that partially reads "YanAIr"" on the forward fuselage, just coming into the background on the right. Blue-grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the front and rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is almost entirely white, with gold titles in an Arabic script on the side of the upper forward fuselage, obscured by the large wing, with gold Arabic calligraphy on the up-turned wingtips and the sides of the engine pods under the wings. The black registration "A6-EDQ" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage, with the last 2 letters repeated on the open nose-wheel doors. A modified, waving version of the flag of the United Arab Emirates fills the white tail, with a diagonal green, white, and black stripe, with a red diagonal band wrapping around the leading edge of the tail and the side of the rear fuselage. Flat grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Front-side view of the nose and forward fuselage of a jet airliner, sitting on the ground, facing to the right, supported by a pair of semi-circular metal frames that hold the fuselage in position. The plane is mostly white, with a purple belly that swoops upwards, co-incidentally, between the two metal frames then back down again towards the rear. There are purple "Monarch" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just forward of a stylised purple and yellow crown, and the yellow web address "FlyMonarchDotCom" on the purple belly, just where it moves upwards. Green grass fills the foreground and part of the background, with gravel under the plane, and trees stretching across the background, under dramatic cloudy grey skies.

Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from left to right along a dark grey taxiway. The plane is almost entirely white, with light and dark blue "FlyVLM" titles on the lower forward fuselage, and the black registration "OO-VLM" on the sides of the rear fuselage. The engine pods mounted on the front of the wings have light and dark blue text "FlyVLMDotCom" on the sides, with the plane's main undercarriage descending from the rear of those pods. Large, blue, diagonal "VLM" titles are on the front of the tail and rear fuselage, with trailing golden wing feathers stretching behind. Green grass lines the runway in the foreground, with a grey roadway coming off at an angle, heading to the bottom right corner. More grass in the background leads up to another black runway in the distance, with trees beyond, and trees on a low hill vanishing into haze beyond that.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined military transport aircraft flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with flaps extended from the rear of the wing and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is covered in a light and dark green camouflage scheme, with the small serial "XP820", larger black text "Army", and a small blue and red roundel on the side of the rear fuselage. The plane's pilot can be seen through the cockpit windows, over the fixed landing gear. Green grass fills the background, with trees and bushes beyond that, mostly on the left, all blurred into a smear as the camera pans to follow the plane, with bright but hazy sky on the right.

Rear view of a single-engined bi-plane light aircraft parked facing slightly to the right of the camera. The plane is largely white, with black, blue, purple, red, orange, and yellow stripes along the body forming a stylised image of the body of an eagle, with similarly coloured stripes on the top and bottom surfaces of the wings and horizontal stabiliser suggesting wing feathers. There is small black text "Christen Eagle" on the upper rear fuselage, just aft of the large bubble canopy, and the black registration "G-GULZ" on the tail. Three men can be seen standing on the far side of the plane, between the cockpit and engine, with one of them seeming to show the other two something. Grey asphalt apron fills the foreground, with a large black hangar in the background, it's large door open on the right revealing some of the planes stored inside.
