Side view of a long, thin, twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, parked on a runway waiting for it's take-off clearance. The plane is largely white, with silvery-grey "Scandinavian Airlines" titles above and below the forward cabin windows, just aft of the forward door. The grey registration "EI-FPJ" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage, just in front of the engine pods. The engine pods themselves are red at the front and white at the rear, with white "Scandinavian" titles on the red portion. The dark blue tail has white "SAS" titles at the bottom, a design repeated on the up-turned wingtips. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the sides of the grey runway. More grass lines taxiways in the background, with a grey terminal building in the distance on the right of the frame, with a large grey hangar and a tall grey and black tower on the left. Blue sky with wisps of grey cloud fill the top of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing away from the camera. The plane is largely white, with a deep purple belly and engine pods under the wings, and yellow rear fuselage and tail. There are blue "Olympus" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "SX-ACP" on the lower rear. The tail has a blue image of the head of a person with long, flowing hair, wearing a floral crown, and with chains of flowers behind them. Strong sunlight from the upper right corner casts a shadow under the plane towards the bottom left. The plane is parked facing a strip of grass with a mesh metal barrier on the other side, with a large concrete area beyond filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked facing to the right in the middle of a grass airfield. The plane is in a metallic grey paint job, with twisted red and yellow ribbons running along the body, along with rows of silvery oblongs, and up into the tail. The silver registration "ZS-SUB" is on the side of the lower rear fuselage. Metallic grey spats with more twisted yellow and red ribbons cover the wheels on the undercarriage. The cockpit doors on either side are open, hinged upwards and forwards, giving access to the 4 seat cabin. Green grass fills the foreground, with more light aircraft parked, mostly facing to the right, in the background. Trees in the distance mark the airfield perimeter, with pylons holding powerlines marching across the frame beyond, under blue skies.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving at speed from right to left along a black runway, with flaps hanging down from the front and rear of the wing, as well as spoilers raised on top of the rear of the wing, and thrust reverser doors open in the rear of the engine pods under the wings, suggesting it is decelerating hard after landing. The plane is largely silver, with black "SkyTeam" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and smaller blue "Czech Airlines" titles just aft of a red triangle with silver "CSA" text in the middle on the lower forward fuselage, just ahead of the wing. There is some elaborate dark blue scrollwork on the side of the rear fuselage, just ahead of the black registration "OK-PET" on the upper rear, above small Czech and EU flags. The tail is the same dark blue, with silver "SkyTeam" text in a semi-circle, with a silver crescent completing the circle, and a smaller, silver version of the scrollwork logo in the middle. A grey taxiway stretches across the bottom of the frame, with a strip of green grass separating that from the runway, with more grass in the background leading up to trees and bushes in the distance, with a hill vanishing into the grey sky beyond that.

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 long, thin, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left as it turns on to a grey runway. The plane is mostly white, with grey "Scandinavian" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with additional "Airlines" titles on the lower forward fuselage. Smaller "Scandinavian" titles are on the sides of the white engine pods, mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, just in front of and below the tail. The blue registration "EC-MLC" is on the lower rear fuselage, just aft of a small Spanish flag, which itself is just aft of a stylised golden crown. On the upper rear fuselage, there is a 9*3 grid of coloured dots, representing the flags of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, the 3 countries for whom SAS is the nominal flag carrier. Slightly yellowing grass fills the foreground, along the side of the runway, while grey hangars are visible over the top of the plane in the background, under blue skies.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane is mostly white, with a red and yellow stripe swooping from under the lower forward fuselage and over the wing, with the yellow descending back under the rear fuselage, while the red takes over the rear fuselage and tail, with additional yellow swirls at the top and on the tail. There are red "Hainan Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, in a Chinese script forward if the mid-cabin door, and in English aft of that door. The black registration "B-304K" is on the upper rear fuselage. Grey concrete apron and black tarmac taxiway fill the foreground, with trees stretching across the background under hazy grey sky. In the middle of the background, a green fire training rig, vaguely resembling a 3-engined Boeing 747, is sitting there looking a bit sorry for itself.
