Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with flaps extended from the front and rear of the wings, and the undercarriage lowered, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with red "Austrian" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to a large, stylised red flying bird. The same red bird logo appears in the white middle of the red tail, the tail colours vaguely reminiscent of the Austrian flag. The black registration "OE-LWK" is on the upper rear fuselage, under small EU and Austrian flags. The engine pods mounted under and ahead of the wings are white on top and red on the sides and bottom, with the white web address "AustrianDotCom" on the sides, while the up-turned wing-tips are the same red. Pale blue-grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the left on a grey runway. The plane is mostly yellow, with a grey stripe outlined in white swooping it's way along the body and up into the lower reaches of the tail, with a black belly, also outlined in white. There are grey "ASL Airlines" titles on an orange stripe on the upper forward fuselage, and the white registration "F-GZTO" on the black part of the upper rear fuselage. The tail is mostly yellow, with a couple of grey stripes. Black engine pods hang under the wings. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance on the left, and a couple of large grey buildings on the right, under vivid blue skies.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, maybe 2 or 3 metres above a grass runway, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and flying straight and level, suggesting it is about to land, the fixed undercarriage not telling us anything. The plane is white, with a thin yellow and blue stripe running along the body, overlaid with the blue registration "G-LACB" on the side of the rear fuselage. There is a red star, with the side arms made from a pair of pilots wings, overlaid with an image of a light aircraft soaring into the sky, in the middle of the white tail. Grass fills the foreground and most of the background, with trees and bushes marking the airfield perimeter in the distance.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner flying from right to left at a very low altitude, with undercarriage extended, flaps deployed from the front and rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is mostly white, with large purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and an image of a flying woman wearing a red leotard and a cape made out of a British flag under the cockpit windows. The tail and rear fuselage is a vibrant red, with white, hand-written "Virgin" titles. The engine pods mounted under the wings are the same red, as are the planes up-turned wing-tips. Green grass fills the foreground, while a grey terminal building stretches across the background, with a tall grey tower with black top floors soars into the grey sky on the left.

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.

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.
