Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane has golden "Emirates" titles on the upper forward fuselage in English and an Arabic script. The same Arabic script is used as a decorative logo on the engine cowling. The rear fuselage and tail is covered in green, white, and black stripes with a vertical red bar, which you eventually realise is the flag of the United Arab Emirates. A large area of green grass, criss-crossed by grey taxiways, fills the foreground, with a large, green, metal open box-like structure stretches across most of the background, under typical grey Mancunian skies.
Side view of a cream-coloured, 3 engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, taxiing from left to right. There is a red and green cheatline running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows, and red "Royal Air Maroc" titles on the upper forward fuselage. Their tail has a green, five pointed star leaving a nearly circular red trail, and red "RAM" titles, with the registration "CN-RMR" on the centre engine air intake. Grey tarmac fills the foreground, with a circular terminal building in the background on the right. In the distance, a large group of BizJets are parked between a couple of buildings, with trees beyond that, under grey skies.
Closeup of the yellow rear fuselage and tail boom and blue tail of a helicopter parked facing to the right. The tail fan is built in to the tail, an open hole with a blue hub in the middle. The top of the tail has a white cross with swooshes suggesting a rotating rotor. The black registration "G-NWAA" is on the tail boom, under a smaller, grey "NWAirAmbulance.org.uk" web address. Green grass fills the background below the tail boom, while trees are visible in the distance above it, and a brown brick building is on the left, under grey skies.

Side view of a white, blue, and red twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right on a rainy day, with lots of puddles creating reflections on the ground.
Side view of an all white, very large, 4 engined jet airliner facing to the left, being pushed backwards by a white tug attached to it's nosewheel, with another, vaguely similar plane in the background.
Low side view of a white and blue, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from right to left at a low altitude, with it's wheels tucked away and flaps being retracted, suggesting it has just taken off, with blue skies and fluffy white clouds in the background.
Almost head on view of a white, red, and black, 3 engined jet airliner, taxiing from right to left and towards the camera, with cloudy grey skies in the background.

Side view of a white, red, and blue twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, flying from left to right at a low altitude, withthe undercarriage retracted, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off, against a pale blue sky as a backdrop.
