Side view of a single-engined bi-plane taxiing across a grass field from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with blue, purple, red, orange, and yellow stripes on the body, resembling the body of an eagle, with the wings covered with similar coloured stripes resembling eagle wings. 2 people can be seen sitting in the tandem-seated cockpit, under a large bubble canopy. Short green grass fills the foreground, with longer green grass in the background, leading up to trees in the distance.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered, and flaps extended from the front and rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with a pale blue belly. There are light and dark blue, billboard-style, "FlyBe" titles on the forward fuselage, over a series of 2 yellow, 2 red, and 2 purple dots, a logo repeated on the sides of the white engine pods under the wings. Larger, diagonal "FlyBe" titles fill the white tail and rear fuselage. The black registration "G-FBJI" is on the upper rear fuselage. Blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

A rather weather-beaten and rusty lump of metal that has been left on grass, ostensibly to rot. Vaguely resembling a light aircraft designed by someone who had only heard a description of an aeroplane, there is a place in the nose for an piston engine, with a cockpit just after that, and what appears to be a single vestigial jet engine on the top rear of the fuselage. The whole thing is covered in rust except where it has been burned, mostly around the nose and the wings. It is surrounded by grass, with a red plastic barrier lying on the ground beside it, and a green metal fence off to one side of the background, with bushes beyond that. Blue sky with fluffs of white cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage extended, and flaps drooping from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with red "FlyPGSDotCom" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, and the black registration "TC-NCP" just aft of a small red and white Turkish flag on the upper rear fuselage, as well as small, black "Airbus A320 Neo" stickers on the side of the lower rear, just below the windows underneath the registration. Similar stickers adorn the sides of the white engine pods under the wings. The tail is a dull yellow, with diagonal red "Pegasus" text along the leading edge. The up-turned wing-tips are the same yellow, with a stylised white image of a flying horse at the bottom. Blue sky with fluffs of white cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Low view of a twin-engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the front and rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with barely visible, dark blue "Lufthansa" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The tail and rear fuselage are dark blue, with the outline of a silver circle containing a silver stylised flying bird on the tail. The registration "D-AIKP" is on the lower rear fuselage in black, next to a small German flag, with the letters "KP" repeated on the open section of the nose wheel doors. Bright blue sky fills the rest of the frame, with bright sunlight coming from the right.

Side view of a white, single engined light aircraft taxiing from left to right on a grass airfield. The plane is white on top, with a green belly, with a gold stripe separating the 2 colours. The same colour scheme is repeated on the spats covering the wheels on the fixed undercarriage. The ends of the wings are gold at the front and green ant the back. Green grass fills most of the frame, leading up to green grass in the distance, under grey skies.

Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered from the rear of the engine pods on the wings, and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The front of the plane is white, with the rear fuselage and tail being purple, and a diagonal, pale purple stripe running from under the forward fuselage, to the top of the rear fuselage, just under the tail. The black registration "G-JECP" is on a light purple fillet in front of the tail, and diagonal white "FlyBe" titles over 6 white dots on the tail. Blue sky with smears of grey cloud fill the background.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, just a few metres above a black runway, with flaps extended in front of and behind the wings, the undercarriage lowered, and the nose raised, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is blue on top, with a white lower third, the white swooping up over the wing and back down again. There are red "Thomson" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a red winky-face made up of the letters "T", "U", and "I" on the blue tail. The blue on the rear fuselage, just in front of and below the tail, swops downwards, the space filles by a dark blue patch. The white registration "G-TUID" is on the dark blue part of the upper rear fuselage, next to a small UK flag, above the rearmost cabin windows and just ahead of the rear door, with white text "Boeing 787-8" just aft of the door. There is cream text "Dream)Liner" below the rear cabin windows. Large, white engine pods hang below and in front of the wing, the scalloped edges of the rear of the fairings being rather obvious. A black taxiway stretches across the bottom of the frame, with strips of grass separating that from the black runway, and more grass visible under the pane in the background leading up to trees in the distance, under bright but hazy sky with patches of pale blue peeking through.
