Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from left to right along a taxiway that is just low enough to appear to be covered in grass. The plane is mostly purple, with a diagonal white band wrapped around the tail and tail-cone, as well as a thin, red, diagonal band and a thicker, yellow, diagonal band wrapped around the rear fuselage. There are white "FlyBe" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, covering some of the passenger cabin windows towards the front, over a series of 6 large white dots. There is white text "Faster than road or rail" on the side of the engine pods under the wings, and the black registration "G-PRPF" on the tail-cone. There are 2-tone blue "FlyBe" titles arranged diagonally on the tail, over 2 yellow, 2 red, and 2 purple dots. Green grass fills the bottom of the frame, lining the side of a black runway, with another thin strip of grass between that and the taxiway our plane is on. Grass and trees stretch across the background, under blue-grey sky.

Side view of a large, single-engined bi-plane rolling along a grass runway with it's tail-wheel raised into a flying position. The plane is mostly white, with the upper forward fuselage and engine cowling painted black, and a blue, white, and red roundel outlined in yellow under the rear cockpit in the middle fuselage. There are small "Royal Navy" titles on the rear fuselage, above the serial "LS326". There is a red and blue fin flash on the tail. There are 3 people visible in the 2 open cockpits on top of the plane, all bundled up in thick leather, fur-lined flying jackets and leather flying jackets - the pilot in the front cockpit, facing forward and concentrating on flying, as he should do, and 2 crew in the rear who are waving at the crowd. Short green grass fills the foreground, with trees lining the airfield perimeter in the background, under cloudy grey skies.

Side view of a helicopter hovering a couple of metres above a dark grey taxiway, facing to the right. The helicopter is black, with a silver and orange stripe swooping across the forward fuselage and along the tail boom. The silver registration "G-DCAM" is on the side of the engine pod on top of the fuselage. The main and tail rotors are spinning, and exhaust from the rear of the engine is creating jellied air behind it. Black taxiway fills most of the foreground, with grass on the left. A heavily glazed grey terminal building fills most of the background, under bright but hazy sky.

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 twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The planes id largely white with partially obscured "Thomas Cook" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, and the black registration "LY-VEB" on the lower rear fuselage. A diagonal light grey and orange band covers the rear fuselage, below the grey tail, which has a large yellow and orange love heart in the middle. Vivid blue sky with occasional light fluffs of thin cloud fills the background.

Front side view of a microlight aircraft parked on grass, facing to the right, with its left wingtip resting on the ground. What little fuselage there is, is a metal frame covered in a carbon fibre shell, with a pair of tandem seats in an open cockpit on top, with a small engine driving a pusher propellor immediately behind, suspended under a large, triangular parasol wing. A small nosewheel is embedded in the forward shell, with main gear covered in yellow spats are on the end of outriggers attached just in front of the engine. The carbon fibre shell is bright yellow, with the wing being mostly yellow, and blue leading edges and cream trailing edge. The black registration "G-MTMW" is on the underside of the left side of the wing. Green grass fills most of the bottom of the frame, with another microlight with a yellow and purple wing on the right of the background, and a single engined light aircraft taxiing away from the camera on the left. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.
