Front view of a single-engined bi-plane taxiing from left to right along a black asphalt taxiway, it's propellor in the nose little more than a spinning black blur. The plane is mostly yellow, with a wide black stripe outlined in red , running along the body, overlaid with the red registration "G-OKAY" on the side of the rear fuselage. A thinner black stripe with thicker red outline is on the spats over the main wheels on the front of the body. The pilot can be seen through the large bubble canopy. Green grass fills most of the background, with several light aircraft parked on the left, with trees beyond, under grey-blue sky.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, undercarriage being retracted, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, and dark blue "British Airways" titles on the lower forward fuselage. There is a dark blue and red twisted ribbon on the upper forward fuselage, and the dark blue registration "G-EUUM" on the lower rear fuselage. The tail is white, with diagonal, waving red stripes either side of a waving blue triangle in the middle. Pale blue sky with wisps of white cloud fills the background.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the right in the middle of a grass airfield. The plane is in a metallic grey paint job, with twisted red and yellow ribbons running along the body, along with rows of silvery oblongs, and up into the tail. The silver registration "ZS-SUB" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage. Metallic grey spats with more twisted yellow and red ribbons cover the wheels on the undercarriage. The cockpit doors on either side are open, hinged upwards and forwards, giving access to the 4 seat cabin. Green grass fills the foreground, with more light aircraft parked, mostly facing to the right, in the background. Trees in the distance mark the airfield perimeter, with pylons holding powerlines marching across the frame beyond, under blue skies.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with grey, lowercase "vueling" and yellow "com" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The tail and rear fuselage start off with small grey dots towards the front, the dots gradually getting larger and merging into a solid wall of grey, with a single yellow dot up towards the top. Green grass lines the sides of a pair of black taxiways in the foreground, and more in the background separates the plane from a black runway, with trees in the distance meeting grey sky.

Side View of a single engined, single seat bi-plane light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low latitude, less than a metre above a grass runway. The plane is mostly red, with a pair of white stripes running along the body, overlaid with the white registration "G-HOON", with similar white stripes running the length of the spats on the main wheels, under the wings. The front of the tail is red, with white "Pitts S-1S"text, while the rear is covered in a red and white checkerboard pattern, which can also be seen on the outer panels of the under side of the wings. A person wearing a white flying helmet can be seen in the single seat cockpit, under a domed canopy. Grrn grass fills the rest of the frame, with the plane casting a strong shadow on the ground behind it, suggesting that the sun is coming from the top left corner.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left, along a grey taxiway. The plane has red "Jet2DotCom" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "CS-WFP" just aft of a small Portugese flag on the lower rear. The tail is a deep blue, with a stylised number "2" made up of red, mint green, and light blue sections. The engine pods mounted under the wings are the same deep blue as the tail, with the up-turned wing-tips are the same mint green as in the number on the tail. A strip of green grass stretches across the foreground, with a grey cargo building stretching across the background with a grey and red jet airliner parked in front on the right. A couple of grey buildings with hotel logos on top are visible over the top off that building, with trees beyond them, under hazy grey skies.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, maybe 2 or 3 metres above a grass runway, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and flying straight and level, suggesting it is about to land, the fixed undercarriage not telling us anything. The plane is white, with a thin yellow and blue stripe running along the body, overlaid with the blue registration "G-LACB" on the side of the rear fuselage. There is a red star, with the side arms made from a pair of pilots wings, overlaid with an image of a light aircraft soaring into the sky, in the middle of the white tail. Grass fills the foreground and most of the background, with trees and bushes marking the airfield perimeter in the distance.
