Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft, parked facing to the left and slightly away from the camera in the middle of a grass field. The plane is mostly white, with an orange/grey/orange stripe starting just aft of the propellor and swooping up over the rear fuselage, just aft of the rear cabin window, and the silvery-grey registration "G-IHXD" on the side of the rear fuselage. Close-cropped green grass fills the foreground and much of the background, with slightly longer grass filling the top of the frame.

Side view of a black, twin propellor-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. There is a red stripe running along the body, sweeping under the rear fuselage, and another red stripe running diagonally up the tail. The red registration "G-BHEH" is on the side of the rear fuselage, partially obscured by the horizontal stabiliser. Green grass fills the foreground and much of the background, with trees and bushes leading off into the distance, eventually getting swallowed up in hazy grey cloud that fills the top of the frame.

Side view of a single-engined BizProp taxiing from right to left on a black taxiway. The plane is white on top and towards the front, and black on the bottom and to the rear, separated by a brown stripe that swoops along the fuselage. The brown registration "N5347V" outlined in white and with a gold drop shadow is on the side of the lower rear fuselage. A pair of gold stripes run along the forward fuselage, one above the brown stripe, the other below, with a thin gold band wrapped around the tail-cone and tail. The pilot can be seen through the cockpit window, with black text "Piper" on the side of the upper fuselage just behind him. Green grass lines both sides of the runway at the bottom of the frame, with more grass separating taxiways and a runway in the background, and more grass leading off to trees and bushes in the distance, slowly vanishing into mist.

Front-side view of the nose and forward fuselage of a jet airliner, sitting on the ground, facing to the right, supported by a pair of semi-circular metal frames that hold the fuselage in position. The plane is mostly white, with a purple belly that swoops upwards, co-incidentally, between the two metal frames then back down again towards the rear. There are purple "Monarch" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just forward of a stylised purple and yellow crown, and the yellow web address "FlyMonarchDotCom" on the purple belly, just where it moves upwards. Green grass fills the foreground and part of the background, with gravel under the plane, and trees stretching across the background, under dramatic cloudy grey skies.

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 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.
