SportCruiser

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 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.

Wing Wednesday 16th September 2026.Read More

Side view of a white, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on grass. The plane looks very sleek, with smooth flowing lines, and a large bubble canopy over the side-by-side cockpit. The plane has a grey belly, with a thin red stripe separating that from the white, and red registration "G-CGLT" on the side of the rear fuselage. The fixed, nose-wheel undercarriage has white sponsons over the wheels. Green grass fills the foreground, with a strong shadow being cast on the ground, suggesting the sun is high in the sky. More light aircraft can be seen in the background - a red one on the left, a yellow one with a high wing in the middle, and a white and orange one on the right. Trees in the distance meet blue sky.

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.
