Side view of a grey, high-winged, 4 propellor-engined cargo plane taxiing from right to left.
The sides and belly are grey, while the top section is white, with a dark blue and red strip running along the side of the fuselage, overlaid with blue and red "HeavyLift" titles on both the front and rear of the fuselage.
The tail is red with a large, white uppercase letter "H" with a heavy, blue drop shadow.
Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with blue metal frames on either side at the bottom, while large grassed areas divided by a runway lead up to cream coloured hangars with large military transport parked on the ramp in front, slowly vanishing into grey haze.

Have you ever seen a ship this HUGE? 😲

Meet BOKA Vanguard 🚢 – one of the largest heavy-lift ships in the world! At a massive 322 meters long, it’s built to carry the biggest projects across the seas. 🌊

A true marvel of engineering! ⚙️

The pair of TransAir Cambodia HS748's in the background should help narrow this down, but not by much - they were there a long time!

Side view of a white, high-winged, 4 propellor-engined cargo plane being towed from left to right by a low-slung blue truck.
The plane has a grey belly, with a blue and red stripe running along the body, and "HeavyLift" titles on the forward fuselage in red and blue.
The tail is red, with a large white letter "H" in the middle, with a massive blue drop-shadow coming down and to the right.
There is a door with a built-in air-stair open on the lower right side of the fuselage, just aft of the nose-wheel.
The white tails of several twin propellor-engined airliners can be seen in the background, surrounded by prefabricated buildings, cars, and trees.
Early morning mist lingers over the background.

Early morning mist lingers over the background.Side view of a white, 3 engined jet cargo plane flying from left to right at a very low altitude, just metres above a runway. Flaps are extended from behind the planes wings, the undercarriage is extended, and the nose is raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane has a grey belly, and blue "Lufthansa Cargo" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The tail is blue, with the centre engine running through it, and a yellow circle containing a stylised flying bird on the upper section. Damp air is causing a layer of cloud to form in the engine inlets, and over the wings. Under the plane, green grass runs up to trees in the distance. Grey sky fills the rest of the frame.Side view of a white, twin engined cargo plane moving from left to right on a runway, with a light on the nosewheel leg shining brightly, and the red beacon on top of the forward fuselage blinking. There are large purple and red "FedEx" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, with smaller purple "Express" titles below that, a logo repeated on the white engines slung under the wings. The registration "N916FD" is on the upper rear fuselage in black. The rear fuselage and tail is purple, with white and red "FedEx" titles on the tail. Grass fills most of the foreground, with more grass in the background leading up to trees in the distance, under grey skies.

Side view of a twin engined bizjet parked facing to the right. The plane is mostly black, with grey trim, and the registration "OY-ONE" in silver on the engines. In the background, the airfield runs pretty much flat to the horizon, where the white/grey sky fills the rest of the frame.Side view of a single propellor engined trainer aircraft parked facing to the left. The plane is mostly grey, with a bright red stripe running along the belly, moving slightly up the fuselage as it moved rearwards, then sharply angling up to the top of the fuselage. There is a red, white, and blue roundel outlined in yellow, on the rear fuselage, followed by the serial "312-US". There is also a red stripe on the tail, with the number "500"at the top. Under the wings are large grey external fuel tanks. The background has a bright orange plane on the right side, bright sky filling the rest of the frame.Side view of a single-seat, single engined, bi-plane light aircraft parked facing to the right. The plane is mostly white, with brown, red, orange, and yellow stripes runnnig from the rear, along the body, growing wider as they move forward until the join together to form the head of an eagle, with similarly coloured stripes on the upper and lower wings resembling feathers. Behind it are a couple of red and white single engined, twin (side -by-side seat) light trainer aircraft, the nearest one with it's canopy slid back.Side view of a high-winged, 4 propellor-engined cargo aircraft taxiing from right to left. The plane has a grey lower half, the upper half is white, with a thin blue and red stripe above a thick blue stripe, seperating the 2 halves, with the words "HeavyLift" in blue and red over a gap in the stripes.
