Side view of a single engined light aircraft taxing from right to left across a grass airfield. The plane is a silvery grey, with a black and red stripe swirling it's way along the body, and the black registration "G-CGVT" on the lower rear fuselage. There is black text "Mainair Flying School", alongside a telephone number on the rear half of the tail. Metallic grey spats with black and red stripes cover the wheels on the undercarriage. Two people can be seen in the cockpit through the comically oversized bubble canopy. Green grass fills the foreground and most of the background, with trees on the airfield perimeter, rolling hills in the far distance, and blue sky at the top of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway. The plane is largely white, with red "Air Canada" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to a red maple leaf in the red outline of a circle, with larger, seemingly hand-written "Rouge" text in a deeper red below. The pale grey registration "C-FMWY" is on the lower rear fuselage, below the rear-most windows. The tail and rear fuselage are red, with part of a larger, white version of the circle and maple leaf logo, and the white number "635" right at the top. The engine pods under the wings are bright red, as are the tall, up-turned wing-tips. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with several more plane parked on more apron in the background, behind a row of tall lighting poles reaching into the grey sky. A ground level car park is beyond these other planes, with trees beyond that.

Low side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is almost entirely purple, with an orange and purple band around the rear fuselage, and a white tail-cone and tail. There are white., billboard-style "FlyBe" titles above 6 white dots on the side of the forward fuselage, with similar diagonal titles in light and dark blue on the tail, over 2 orange, 2 red, and 2 purple dots. The white titles are also inverted on the underside of the fuselage. The engine pods mounted out on the wings are also purple, with the main undercarriage hanging down on long, spindly legs from the rear. The black registration "G-JECZ" is on the side of the tail-cone right at the rear. Flat grey clouds fill the rest of the frame.
