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.

Side view of a high-winged, 34 propellor-engined military transport aircraft parked facing to the right on a black runway, with it's cargo ramp in the rear fuselage deployed, with a vehicle moving along the runway that has obviously just come out of the back of the plane. The plane is covered in a grey and green-brown camouflage scheme, with small "Royal Air Force" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, the large black number "218" under the cockpit windows on the nose. There is a large blue and red roundel on the side of the rear fuselage, followed by the small serial "XV218". The black number "218" is repeated on the tail, over a blue and red fin flash. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass on the far side of the runway. More grass in the background leads up to a pair of white and blue jet fighters on the left, and blue hangars on left and right, with trees beyond, under flat white sky.

Side view of a single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane sis in a vaguely military-looking olive-green colour scheme, with large, seemingly random patches of white in several places, and the white registration "D-EARY" on the side of the rear fuselage. The engine cowling on the nose is bright yellow, with a large image of a rather aggressive-looking bird with it's mouth open in a screech, with a red banner with the words "Screaming Eagle" underneath. The tail has a black and white large checkerboard pattern on the front half, the rear half being bright yellow with a black and white fin flash towards the top. A section at the rear of the tail has a finer black and white checkerboard pattern. Green grass fills the rest of the frame, except for a dirt track crossing from one side to the other.
