Side view of a twin-engined jet airliner lined up facing to the left on a grey runway. The plane is largely white, with red "Jet2 Holidays" titles on the lower forward fuselage, the word "Holidays" having a vertical orange-red gradient. There is red text "Package holidays you can trust" on the upper fuselage, centred over the wings, and the black registration "G-LSAJ" on the upper rear. A diagonal blue band is wrapped around the rear fuselage and tail, overlaid with a large, red, orange, and yellow sunburst on the lower rear of the tail and the tail-cone. The blue engine pods under the wings have a smaller version of the titles from the lower fuselage across the middle, including the gradient. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass visible under the plane in the background. Some out-of-focus planes can be seen in the distance on the right of the frame, parked against a grey terminal building. Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a rather sleek, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on close-cropped grass. The plane is white on top with a grey lower half, separated by a thin, wavy red stripe running along the body. The red registration "G-CGLT" is on the upper rear fuselage, and there is a grey-red-grey-red strip along the top of the white tail. A white spat covers the nosewheel, while the spats over the main wheels have the same white and grey with a red stripe design as the body. Green grass fills the foreground, with a man wearing a yellow hi-viz vest and dark blue trousers standing by the far wing-tip, looking out to the rest of the airfield. A red light aircraft is in the background on the left, a high-winged yellow plane in the middle, and a white and orange plane on the left, with trees in the distance, under blue sky.

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.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black runway, with flaps extended from the front and rear of the wings. It is turning off the runway onto a taxiway, which suggests it has just landed. The plane is largely white, with a thick purple stripe running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows, with an orange pinstripe below, over a thin gold stripe that gets wider as it moves rearwards, curving down to run under the rear fuselage. There are purple "Singapore Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just forward of a small Singapore flag. The up-turned wingtips are mostly the same purple, with a bright orange diagonal stripe along the trailing edge. This design is repeated on the tail, with the addition of a highly stylised, golden flying bird in the middle. Green grass fills the foreground, a black sign with a pair of white chevrons pointing left in the bottom right corner, and a black metal mesh fence on black support struts in the lower right. More grass in the background leads up to trees in the distance, under blue-grey sky.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is mostly dark blue, with a thick white stripe running along the bottom of the body, with a thinner white pinstripe running from the nose to the tail, under the cockpit, overlaid with the white registration "G-AWVA" on the side of the rear fuselage. There is a white stripe near the top of the tail, with the word "Cessna" in black. Orange and white traffic cones are attached to the underside of support struts running from the bottom of the fuselage to the underside of the mid-point of the wings by a long blue rope, acting as weights in case of high winds. Green grass fills the foreground. A silver light aircraft is in the background, a blue cover over the cockpit area, with it's silver, yellow, and black tail towering over this plane. More grass in the background leads up to trees and bushes beyond that, with rolling hills meeting grey sky in the distance.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner flying from right to left at a very low altitude, it's wheels just centimetres above the black runway, it's raised nose suggesting it is taking off. The plane is largely white, with a black belly, red "LoganAir" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and black text "Scotland's Airline" on the upper rear. The black registration "G-LGNE" is on the lower rear fuselage. The tail and part of the rear fuselage is covered in a red, black, and white tartan. The engine pods, mounted slightly above the wings, are mostly red, with a black bottom. Green grass lines the black runway in the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance, with pale grey-blue sky filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving from left to righ along a runway. The plane is mostly white, with a red and yellow stripe running along the body, spilling over the front of the wings, and running up and down to fill the rear fuselage, with a second yel;low stripe on the upper rear. The tail is red, with yellow swirls in the middle. There are red "Hainan Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, just aft of the forward mid-cabin door, with the same titles in a Chinese script further forward, partially obscured by the wing. There is black text "Boeing 787-8" under the rear-most cabin windows, above larger, yellow "DreamLiner" text. The black registration "B-2731" si on the upper rear fuselage, with the number "2731" repeated on the sides of the open nose-wheel doors.

There is the light blue web address "WWWDotFlyBeDotCom"on the side of the white engine pods on the front of the wings, again with a pale blue belly, and the black registration "G-LGNO" on the upper rear fuselage. The large, pale blue text "Fly" is just in front of the horizontal stabiliser at the rear of the fuselage, with dark blue "Be" diagonally on the white tail, just above. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the near side of the runway, with a grass bank on the far side meeting trees in the distance, under flat grey sky.
