Tupolev

Side view of a white and blue, twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage extended and flaps deployed from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The most of the body is white, with blue "Air Transat" titles on the forward fuselage. The rear fuselage is a dark blue, with greetings in multiple languages, such as "Welcome", "Bienvenue", and "Wilkommen", printed in multiple colours. The tail is also dark blue, with the blue outline of a star in the middle, a design repeated on the upturned wingtips. Flat white sky fills the background.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with the undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, with the nose fairly flat, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is largely white, with a pale blue belly, with light and dark "FlyBe" titles over 2 yellow, 2 red, and 2 purple dots. There are slightly larger "FlyBe" titles on the tail, with the black registration "G-FBJG" on the upper rear fuselage. Flat grey sky fills the rest of the frame.

The nose and forward fuselage of a large, military jet bomber aircraft, mounted on a red metal cradle, and pointed to the right of the frame. The remnant of the plane is mostly covered in a faded grey and brown camouflage scheme, with a pale grey belly, and a large, blue and red roundel on the side of the fuselage, under the cockpit. A white sign can be seen on the front of the metal cradle, the top reading "Tickets for the Vulcan cockpit", the rest being cut off. Cars can be seen in the background, parked on a large grassed area, with white buildings in the distance on the right, and rolling hills on the left, under grim grey sky.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner flying from right to left at a very low altitude, it's wheels just centimetres above the black runway, it's raised nose suggesting it is taking off. The plane is largely white, with a black belly, red "LoganAir" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and black text "Scotland's Airline" on the upper rear. The black registration "G-LGNE" is on the lower rear fuselage. The tail and part of the rear fuselage is covered in a red, black, and white tartan. The engine pods, mounted slightly above the wings, are mostly red, with a black bottom. Green grass lines the black runway in the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance, with pale grey-blue sky filling the rest of the frame.

Rear view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner facing directly away from the camera. The plane is almost entirely white, with a red band around the rear fuselage, with a green and black diagonal stripe visible on the tail, and a red patch under the body. A large engine under each of the massive wings (and another engine further out on each side) match the planes humungous fuselage and tail, and somehow manage to make the trees in the background seem small. Shooting through a chainlink fence results in some slight vignetting in the bottom half of the frame. Cloudy grey sky with streaks of blue fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a single-engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, with fixed undercarriage under the fuselage, flaps extended from the rear of the wings and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is silver on top, and a creamy white on the bottom, the two colours separated by a thin red pin-stripe. The red registration is on the side of the rear fuselage, while the text "G115" is on the upper engine cowling in the plane's nose. The registration is repeated in a larger form under the left wing. Flat white sky fills the background.

Side view of a twin propellor-engined BizProp aircraft parked facing to the left on grass. The plane is mostly white, with a dark and light brown stripe running along the body, engine cowlings in front of the wings, the tips of the wings, and the top of the tail. The black registration "N889VF" is on the lower rear fuselage, a brown drop-shadow giving it a slight 3-D look. Green grass fills the foreground, with a red metal plate with yellow hazard markings lying on the ground. More grass in the background, leading up to trees at the airfield boundary, with tall metal pylons carrying electrical cables across the image, under flat grey sky.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft flying from right to left at a very low altitude, just a couple of metres above a grass runway, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is largely white, with a thick red stripe running along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-CGFG" on the side of the rear fuselage, and a red panel on top of the engine cowling in front of the cockpit. A large area of grass fills the bottom of the frame in the background, with trees in the distance, under pale blue sky.
