Side view of a twin engined BizJet flying from left too right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is an overall cream colour, with only the white registration "N7i00GF on the sides of the jet engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage creating any contrast. Cars sparked in the long-term car park below it are reflected in the underside of the planes left wing. In the background, hazy clouds at the bottom of the frame give way to blue sky with wisps of cloud at the top.

Head-on view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing along a black taxiway, facing directly towards the camera, but turning to it's right, following a yellow line marked on the taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, while the red engine pods are mounted towards the top of the rear fuselage, under the large T-Tail. A light mounted on the side of the nose-wheel leg shines brightly down the camera lens. Black taxiway fills the foreground, with green grass in the background leading up to a black and grey runway, with more grass on the far side leading up to trees in the distance, under grim grey sky.

Tails Tuesday 4th August 2026.Read More

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner on a black runway, moving slowly from right to left, slight puffs of steam rising from the runway behind it suggesting it is accelerating for take-off. The plane is mostly white, with thin gold and red pinstripes running along the body, and large gold "Etihad" titles on the upper fuselage, over the wings, in English, with smaller titles in an Arabic script a bit further forward. Additional golden text "From Abu Dhabi To The World" just above the gold and red strip on the forward fuselage. The tail has a golden bird with wings partially extended, and a circular version of the flag of the United Arab Emirates on the chest, in the middle. There is a large text area on the upper rear fuselage advertising the Abu Dhabi Formula Grand Prix on the upper rear fuselage, with the web address "wwwDotEtihadAirwaysDotCom" in gold on the lower rear, and the black registration "A6-ETJ" under the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with a large terminal building in the background on the right, and a grey hangar in the background on the left. Rolling blue-grey cloud fills the top of the frame, with light blue patches of clear sky in places. Gorgeous golden light washes across the frame from the lower right, especially on the plane's body.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner facing to the left but being pushed back to the right by an out-of-frame tug attached to the nose-wheel by a long white pole. The plane is largely white, with a dark blue belly, and blue "Sun Express" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The black registration "TC-SNT" is on the lower rear fuselage, below the rearmost passenger cabin windows, with a small Turkish flag just above those windows. A circular, blue sunburst design with an orange band across the middle is on the plane's nose, below the cockpit windows, replicated in a larger form on the tail and rear fuselage. The engine pods under the wings are white on top and blue on the bottom, with an orange stripe across the middle, and white text "SunExpress.com" along the bottom half, while the up-and-down-turned wing-tips are blue, with orange tips on the upper section. Grey concretes apron fills the foreground, with white and yellow markings for aircraft to follow, as well as roadways marked for ground vehicles. More apron fills the background, with a strip of grass separating 2 different areas, with several planes parked against a grey building in the distance.

Side view of a metallic blue small helicopter parked on a concrete landing pad, facing to the right. There is a light blue lightning flash on the lower fuselage and door, with silver "R22"text on the upper rear fuselage, above smaller "Beta II" text. The silver registration "G-HIZZ" is at the front of the tail boom, just as it comes out of the fuselage, above the partially exposed engine. The black and white striped tail rotor is on the left side at the rear of the tail boom. Green grass fills the foreground, with several planes parked on more grass in the background, leading up to trees and bushes marking the airfield perimeter in the distance, under blue sky with smatterings of thin white cloud.

Side view of a white, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it has just landed. The plane has purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the upper mid-fuselage, with an image of a woman wearing a red mini-dress flying through the air and trailing a Union Flag positioned under the cockpit windows on the forward fuselage. The tail is a bright metallic red, with seemingly hand-drawn "Virgin" titles. The engine pods slung under the wings are the same metallic red. The squared-off up-turned wingtips have a waving modified Union Flag. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees dominating the background, under grey-blue skies.

Side view of a small helicopter hovering a few metres above a grassy field, facing to the left. The copter is in a metallic blue livery, with a large golden zig-zag stripe on the side of the fuselage, partially missing because the doors aren't being carried on this flight, and the golden registration "G-GHIZZ" on the long, thin tail boom. A man is sitting in the left seat in the cockpit, holding a camera as he takes a photo towards the viewer. Green grass in the background leads up to trees stretching across the frame in the distance, and a tall electricity pylon with cables that reach across the frame, under cloudy white sky.
