Embraer

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner facing to the left on a grey runway. The plane has a pale blue belly, and pale and dark blue "FlyBe" titles above a series of yellow, red, and purple dots on the forward fuselage. These titles are repeated on the sides of the engine cowlings with additional "[dot] com" titles, as well as on the tail, minus the dots. Green grass fills the bottom of the frame, with the razor-wire on the top of the perimeter fence visible right at the bottom. More grass in the background leads up to a large grey hangar in the distance on the right, and trees on the left, under blue-grey sky.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with a maroon stripe running along the body, covering the lower deck windows, and maroon "Qatar Airways" titles on the forward fuselage, in an Arabic script between the upper and lower deck windows, and in English below the lower deck windows. The tail is also maroon, with the white head of a horned, goat-like animal inside the outline of a white circle. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a large grey hangar in the background on the left, several pale blue fuel tanks towards the middle, and a selection of other airport buildings on the right. Trees in the distance slowly vanish into a bright but hazy sky.

Front side view of a bright red, high-winged, twin propellor-engined parked facing to the left and slightly towards the camera. The plane's roof and the tops of the wings and engines are a shiny black, and black "British Antarctic Survey" are on the lower forward fuselage under the passenger cabin windows. A door in the rear fuselage is hanging open. Metal skids are mounted on the undercarriage, the wheels poking through the bottom. There is a white board on a wooden easel which has indecipherable text about this plane which partially obscures the nose on the left of the frame. Crowds of people behind a low metal fence are visible in the background, under flat white skies.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane has a grey belly, and a thin red and blue stripe running along the body, getting wider as it moves rearwards, then sweeping up to fill the tail. The engines, mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, are in a bare metal state. The registration "G-OBWD" is visible on the upper rear fuselage. Grey concrete taxiways fill almost all the frame, apart from a red and white banded metal barrier stretching across the top of the frame.

Side view of a single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane sis in a vaguely military-looking olive-green colour scheme, with large, seemingly random patches of white in several places, and the white registration "D-EARY" on the side of the rear fuselage. The engine cowling on the nose is bright yellow, with a large image of a rather aggressive-looking bird with it's mouth open in a screech, with a red banner with the words "Screaming Eagle" underneath. The tail has a black and white large checkerboard pattern on the front half, the rear half being bright yellow with a black and white fin flash towards the top. A section at the rear of the tail has a finer black and white checkerboard pattern. Green grass fills the rest of the frame, except for a dirt track crossing from one side to the other.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, just a couple of metres above the white numbers on a grass runway. The plane is mostly white, with a light and dark blue stripe running along the body and up into the lower parts of the tail, overlaid with dark blue registration "G-BPVA" on the rear fuselage. The plane has flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and is flying more or less straight and level, suggesting it is just about to land. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees filling the background.

Side view of a long and thin, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from right to left along a black tarmac taxiway. The plane is largely white, with a thin blue and red stripe running along the body, overlaid with blue "BinAir" titles under the cockpit windows, and the black registration "D-CPSW" next to a small German flagon the side of the rear fuselage. The white tail has the blue letters "BA" underlined in red. Lush green grass fills the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to a black runway , and more grass leading up to trees in the distance, under grim grey sky. The centre fuselage and wingbox of a white, yellow, and blue jet airliner flying through the top left corner as it takes off.

Side view of an extremely orange, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a black taxiway. The plane is almost entirely orange, with billboard-style white "easyjet.com" titles on the side of the fuselage, the white number "200" under the cockpit windows, and diagonal white "easyJet" titles on the tail. Even the wingtip fences are painted orange, while the black registration "G-EZUI" is the only break in the colour scheme. Lush green grass fills the foreground, with more visible under the plane in the background, and trees on the skyline in the distance. Flat white sky fills the top of the frame.

Front-side view of a single engined light aircraft parked on grass facing to the right. The plane is in a metallic grey livery, with a series of short, silver stripes running along the body, with yellow and red ribbons intertwined with and spinning through them. The silver registration "ZS-SUB" is on the lower rear fuselage. The cockpit door on the other side is open, hinged forwards and upwards. The foreground is filled with short green brass, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance. Several planes are visible in the background, mostly a bright yellow plane on the right, with various wings and tails coming in to view. Several people wearing yellow hi-viz vests are scattered around the airfield, acting as marshallers for all the visitors.
