Side view of a high-winged, single engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, less than a metre above the ground, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land on the grass runway below it. Thew plane is mostly white, with a red stripe running along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-CGFG" on the side of the rear fuselage, a red panel on top of the engine cowling in front of the cockpit, and a red stripe at the top of the tail. A bright red light is shining right on the top of the tail. Short green grass fills the foreground, with longer grass in the background, and trees in the distance, all blurred into a smear.

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.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right at a busy airport. The plane is largely white, with mauve, billboard-style "Qatar" titles on the forward fuselage, repeated in a grey Arabic script on the upper forward fuselage, above the wing root, and the black registration "A7-BOF" on the lower rear fuselage, just below the last few cabin windows, and a small Qatari flag just above those windows. The tail is a very light grey, with darker grey stripes overlaid with the head of an animal with horns sticking out of the back of it's head. A smaller, circular version of the tail logo appears on the side of the white engine pods mounted under the wings. Grey concrete apron, marked with yellow lines for planes to follow, some of which are lit up, fills the foreground. More apron space fills the background, with a total of 13 jet airliners visible, parked facing in various directions, in an array of liveries that predominantly feature shades of white, blue, grey, and red. Trees in the distance are being swallowed up by grey mist.
