Side view of a high-winged, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway, with flaps extended from behind the rear of the wings, suggesting it has just landed on the runway behind it. The plane has a white top half and a grey lower half, with black "Brussels Airlines" titles on the lower forward fuselage, the lower parts of the letters "INE" obscured by a patch of grey paint. There is the black web address "BrusselsAirlinesDotCom" on the upper rear fuselage, just above the rearmost cabin windows, with small EU and Belgian flags below the windows. A dark blue diagonal band wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with the white registration "OO-DWC" on the rear fuselage, and a lower-case letter "B" made up of a line of red dots filling the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with another taxiway stretching across the foreground. More grass separates the plane from a runway in the background, with yet more grass leading up to trees in the distance, under bright but hazy sky.

Rear view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner facing directly away from the camera. The plane is almost entirely white, with a red band around the rear fuselage, with a green and black diagonal stripe visible on the tail, and a red patch under the body. A large engine under each of the massive wings (and another engine further out on each side) match the planes humungous fuselage and tail, and somehow manage to make the trees in the background seem small. Shooting through a chainlink fence results in some slight vignetting in the bottom half of the frame. Cloudy grey sky with streaks of blue fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a long, thin, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude with flaps extending from the rear of the wings and the undercarriage lowered, suggesting it is about to land. There are thin red and blue stripes running along the body, blue "BinAir" titles on the forward fuselage under the cockpit, and the registration "D-CAVA" on the rear fuselage, also in blue. Blue-grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

On This Day 28th July 1995.Read More

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.

On This Day 15th June 1996.Read More

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving from left to right at high speed, with flaps extended from the rear of the wing and the nose-wheel raised sharply, suggesting it is in the middle of taking off. The plane is almost entirely white, with plain red tail and engine pods, mounted under the wings. There are small, blue, "Estonian Air" stickers un the first 2 passenger cabin windows, while the black registration "ES-AEB" is over the last 2. The up-turned wingtips are also bright red. Green grass lines taxiways in the foreground, while a selection of grey hangars line the background, under grey sky.

Side view of a long and thin twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from right to left along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a thin red and blue stripe running along the body, and large blue "BinAir" titles under the cockpit windows. There are large blue letters "BA" on the tail, and the black registration "D-CPSW" on the rear fuselage, next to a large German flag. Green grass lines the taxiway in the foreground, with a roll of razorwire on top of a fence visible right at the bottom. More grass lines taxiways and a runway in the background, leading up to trees vanishing in to mist in the distance.
