Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with it's rearmost wheels just leaving the ground, flaps deployed from the front and rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, and fluff forming on top of the wings, suggesting it has just taken off, and that this is a cold and damp day. The plane has a grey top half and white lower half, with large, purple "Qatar" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with smaller, grey titles in an Arabic script a bit further aft, above the wing root. There is a small Qatari flag on the upper rear fuselage, above the black registration "A7-AEI". The up-turned wingtips are the same purple as the titles. Dark grey stripes run along the tail, overlaid with an image of an animal with a pair of horns sticking up and backwards from the top of it's head. This logo is repeated in a smaller form on the side of the grey engine pods, under the wings. Green grass fills the foreground, with a black roadway right at the bottom of the frame, and a browny-grey taxiway running from side to side a bit further up. More grass in the background leads up to trees in the distance, under flat, murky grey sky.

The plane is mostly white, with a red and grey stripe swooping it's way along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-CIRZ" on the side of the rear fuselage.

The rear, movable part of the tail has the red outline of a circle with 3 highly stylised flying birds in the middle, and the text "Ikarus C42", over the grey and red stripe.

Side view of a single-engined, high-winged, light aircraft parked facing to the right on short-mown grass. The plane is mostly white, with a red and green swirly stripe running along the body, the swooping up into the top of the tail and back down again, overlaid with the blue registration "G-BNTP" on the side of the rear fuselage. White support struts come from the side of the lower forward fuselage, stretching diagonally up and out towards a point about a quarter of the way along the wing. A rope dangles from a hook where the strut meets the wing, attached to a red traffic cone resting on the ground, acting as a weight in high winds. Short green grass fills the foreground, as well as much of the background, with a pair of light aircraft visible on the left of the frame, the nearest one white and blue with a white high wing, and the other silver, with a yellow and black checkerboard pattern on the rear of the tail, over laid with a red star. Trees in the far distance meet fluffs of white cloud that fill the top of the frame, with blue patches peeking through.
