Islander

Side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner flying from right to left at a very low altitude, it's wheels just centimetres above the black runway, it's raised nose suggesting it is taking off. The plane is largely white, with a black belly, red "LoganAir" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and black text "Scotland's Airline" on the upper rear. The black registration "G-LGNE" is on the lower rear fuselage. The tail and part of the rear fuselage is covered in a red, black, and white tartan. The engine pods, mounted slightly above the wings, are mostly red, with a black bottom. Green grass lines the black runway in the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance, with pale grey-blue sky filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway lined with green gr4ass. The plane is mostly white, large, dark grey "Thomas Cook" titles on the upper forward fuselage, partially covering the passenger cabin windows, , with small, grey "Airbus A320" text on the lower forward fuselage, and the grey registration "G-TCAE" next to a small UK flag on the lower rear. A diagonal yellow band wraps around the rear fuselage, next to a light grey band, which is next to a dark grey band which wraps around the tail and the end of the rear fuselage. A large yellow love-heart fills the middle of the tail, with bright yellow matching engine pods mounted under the wings. Grass lines both sides of the taxiway, as well as another taxiway and a runway in the background. Grey sky fills most of the rest of the frame, with a bright spot on the upper middle.

On This Day 23rd June 1996. Tails Tuesday 23rd June 2026.Read More

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane is mostly white, with a red and yellow stripe swooping from under the lower forward fuselage and over the wing, with the yellow descending back under the rear fuselage, while the red takes over the rear fuselage and tail, with additional yellow swirls at the top and on the tail. There are red "Hainan Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, in a Chinese script forward if the mid-cabin door, and in English aft of that door. The black registration "B-304K" is on the upper rear fuselage. Grey concrete apron and black tarmac taxiway fill the foreground, with trees stretching across the background under hazy grey sky. In the middle of the background, a green fire training rig, vaguely resembling a 3-engined Boeing 747, is sitting there looking a bit sorry for itself.

Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor engined light transport plane parked on grass facing to the right. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue lower body, sweeping up to fill the rear fuselage and tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with a white, single engined light aircraft just nosing in to frame from the left. There are several buildings in various shades of grey in the background, with a white fuel tank with red "Total" markings on the left of the frame, all under flat white sky.
