SouthSide (Page 7)

Side view of a white, high-winged, twin propellor-engined light aircraft, parked facing to the left in a brown brick hangar. The plane has a pair of green stripes running along the body, widening as they move rearwards, and a green tail outlined in white. The fixed undercarriage has spats covering the top of the wheels, with the top half painted green, the lower half in white. The registration "G-BFBD" is on the rear fuselage in black. Several light aircraft can be seen parked in the background on the left, behind this plane's nose. Brown brick walls stretch across the background, with grey vertical metal support beams at intervals. Boarded-up windows fill the top of the walls.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a grey runway. The plane is primarily dark blue, with large white "Family Life" titles on the forward, with much smaller "Hotels" text below the last 2 letters. A pair of cartoon characters, an orange teddy bear and a yellow dog, are on the rear fuselage, either side of the white registration "G-FDZG". The tail is a light blue, with a red winky face that looks like the letters "T", "U", and "i" squished together. Green grass fills the foreground, with trees stretching across the background, under grey sky.

Side view of a twin engined BizJet with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from right to left along a grey taxiway. The plane is largely white, with a green stripe starting in the middle of the upper fuselage, running forward along the top of the body, down under the cockpit windows, then back along the lower body, and up into the tail, and the green registration "D-AJOY" on the tail-cone, partially obscured by one of the engines on the rear fuselage. A grey taxiway fills the foreground, with a patch of green grass in the bottom right corner, and more grass in the background, leading up to several jet airliners partially obscured by jelly pouring out of the rear of the planes engines. Flat grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving from right to left along a runway, with flaps drooping from the front and rear of the wings, suggesting it is decelerating after landing. The plane is mostly white, with large green "Alba" and red "Star" titles on the forward fuselage, and the black registration "EC-NAB" on the lower rear fuselage, next to a small Spain and EU flags. The rear fuselage is green with a curved, diagonal red bandtowards the front, while the tail is red with a large, white, stylised letter "A" in the middle, a design replicated on the up-turned wingtips. Red engine pods hang down in front of the wings. Green grass fills the foreground, with grey taxiways passing through from one side to the other. Green trees line the background, under blue-grey skies.

Side view of a twin engined BizProp parked on a grey runway, facing to the left. The plane is mostly white, with black "Huawei" titles on the nosecone, black text "Huawei P20 Pro" on the sides of the engine cowlings on the wings, and the black registration "G-YEOM" on the lower rear fuselage. There are red "Vodafone" titles on the upper rear fuselage, next to a red circle with a white, single quote mark in the middle. The tail is red, with diagonal white "Huawei" titles next to a white stylised image of an open flower. A thin strip of green grass at the bottom of the frame lines the side of the grey runway, with more grass and a taxiway visible under the plane in the background, with a large, green, boxy metal structure in front of a large grey hangar in the distance, under blue sky.

Side view of a black, single engined military jet fighter taxiing from left to right along a grey runway. The plane is basically a large black engine pod with a white belly, with twin black tail booms stretching backwards from the wing root, carrying the small twin tails. The cockpit canopy at the front of the plane is open, slid back along the top of the fuselage, with the bright red helmet of the pilot clearly visible in the gap. The tail booms has white "Royal Navy" titles, just aft of a blue, white, and red roundel. The registration "G-GONE" is on the end of the boom in white, under the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, with a large grey building dominating the frame on the right, and trees on the left in the background, under bright but hazy skies.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black runway. The plane is mostly white, with golden "Emirates" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, and smaller titles in a golden Arabic script over the wings. Golden Arabic calligraphy covers the white engine pods under the wings, echoing the titles on the fuselage. Images of grey and black elephants wander across the rear fuselage. A large grassed area fills the foreground, with a grey taxiway right at the bottom of the frame. Trees line the far side of the runway, with buildings in the far distance disappearing into murky grey sky.
