MD11 (Page 2)

Side view of a 3 engined jet airliner flying from right to left at a low altitude, with undercarriage already tucked away, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised significantly, suggesting that it has just taken off. The plane is mostly white, with a grey belly, and dark blue "Lufthansa Cargo" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "D-ALCD" next to a small German flag on the lower rear. The tail and centre engine pod are dark blue, with a yellow circle containing a stylised blue flying bird in the middle. The engine pods mounted under the wings are grey, as are the up-turned wing-tips. Pale blue sky with grey fluffs of cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner parked facing to the right on a large section of concrete apron. The plane is almost entirely white, with large, golden "Emirates" titles on the forward fuselage, between the 2 passenger deck windows. A large, diagonal version of the United Arab Emirates flag fills the tail and part of the upper rear fuselage. Grey taxiways and a strip of green grass fills the foreground, with several more jet airliners parked in the background, with trees in the distance, under grey sky.

Side view of a white, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on grass. The plane looks very sleek, with smooth flowing lines, and a large bubble canopy over the side-by-side cockpit. The plane has a grey belly, with a thin red stripe separating that from the white, and red registration "G-CGLT" on the side of the rear fuselage. The fixed, nose-wheel undercarriage has white sponsons over the wheels. Green grass fills the foreground, with a strong shadow being cast on the ground, suggesting the sun is high in the sky. More light aircraft can be seen in the background - a red one on the left, a yellow one with a high wing in the middle, and a white and orange one on the right. Trees in the distance meet blue sky.

Bright but hazy skies fill the top of the frame.

Front view of a blue, 2 seat gyrocopter parked facing the camera. The aircraft has no wings, but instead a rotor like a helicopter, but also has a pusher propellor at the rear. The fuselage is dark blue on the top surfaces, with a creamy white belly. It is parked on a small concrete slab surrounded by grass, with a brown wooden fence separating the airfield from parked cars, with tall trees behind, under pale grey skies.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner moving from right to left along a runway with the rear panel of one of the engines slid back, exposing the thrust reversers, suggesting it has just landed. The plane is mostly white, with large gold "Emirates" titles in English on the upper forward fuselage, between the 2 rows of passenger windows, and smaller titles in an Arabic script a bit further back, over the wings. A waving United Arab Emirates flag (red vertical bar on the left, with equal green, white, and black stripes on the right) covers the tail and part of the rear fuselage. Golden calligraphic art made up of the characters that make up the airlines Arabic name adorns the engine pods, the cowling of the inner engines split as the rear portion has moved backwards to expose the thrust reversers. Another runway stretches across the foreground, lined by green grass, while a pair of large grey hangars dominate the background, under pale blue-grey sky.

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 high winged, single engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass, with large weights attached to the wings by long red straps to keep it in place. The plane is mostly white, with an orange and grey swirl reaching from near the front of the engine cowling, below and the up around the back of the cockpit, and the silver registration "G-IHXD" on the side sf the rear fuselage. Green grass fills the foreground and a large part of the background, with a couple more planes parked on the left of the frame behind this one, and trees in the distance, meeting flat grey sky.
