Side view of a twin engined jet airliner facing to the right but being pushed back to the left by an almost-out-of-frame low-slung red truck attached to the nose-wheel by a long red pole. The plane is largely white, with red "Jet2Holidays" titles on the lower forward fuselage, the word "Holidays" having a yellow to red vertical gradient. There is orange text "Package holidays you can trust" on the upper fuselage, over the wings, and the black registration "G-HLYF" on the side of the upper rear fuselage. A diagonal blue band wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with a red, orange, and yellow sunburst design filling much of that blue space. The engine pods mounted under the wings are the same blue as the rear fuselage, with a smaller version of the text "Jet2Holidays" logo from the lower forward fuselage. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a black terminal building filling the background, a grey jet airliner with a red tail behind this plane on the left. Several tall lighting poles reach into the grim 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 twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, undercarriage being retracted, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, and dark blue "British Airways" titles on the lower forward fuselage. There is a dark blue and red twisted ribbon on the upper forward fuselage, and the dark blue registration "G-EUUM" on the lower rear fuselage. The tail is white, with diagonal, waving red stripes either side of a waving blue triangle in the middle. Pale blue sky with wisps of white cloud fills the background.
