Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the left.
The plane has a dark blue, mid blue, and light blue stripe running along the body, narrowing and sweeping up into the tail where it serves as a flag pole for  half a UK Flag.
There are blue "Air UK" titles on the upper forward fuselage, followed by red "Leisure" titles, the latter in a seemingly hand-written script. There is a hatch open to the cargo bay in the lower forward fuselage, and a set of mobile blue airstairs parked by the rear door on the opposite side.
A low terminal building stretches across most of the frame from the right, with a couple of other planes barely visible on the far side, mostly through the large windows.
Trees in the distance stretch all the way across the frame, under bright but hazy skies.

There is a blue cheatline running along the body, blue "FinnAir" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and blue "MD-87" titles in the white engine pods. The white tail has a blue cross offset to the left in the middle. The registration "OH-LMC" is on the upper rear fuselage in blue, partially obscured by the engine pod. There is also a dark and light blue band running under the forward fuselage. A brown wicker fence fills the foreground, with green grass running off to the horizon in the background. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.Side view of a silver, single engined light aircraft parked facing to the right at a busy General Aviation airfield. The plane has a white belly, and the registration "G-BOPU" on the rear fuselage in red. The plane's flaps are deployed from the rear of the wing. Grey tarmac fills the foreground, with a brown brick control tower with a large glazed area at the top looming over the background on the left, and grass on the right running off to trees on the horizon, with more light aircraft and a small helicopter parked. Bright but hazy skies fill the rest of the frame.
