Rear side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right on a concrete pad at the edge of a large grassed area.
The plane is mostly black, with a blue and yellow stripe running along the body, overlaid with white text "Skydive Scotland" above a smaller, blue telephone number "0821-642881".
The registration is painted on the rear fuselage in white, but is largely obscured by the horizontal stabiliser.
There are a pair of yellow and blue diagonal stripes on the tail, along with a stylised image of a person, painted all in white, hanging from under a blue parachute.
Green grass in the background runs off to a black chainlink fence marking the airfield perimeter, with tree-covered rolling green hills under grey sky in the distance.

So I had to scrap the Piper PA-18 Super Cub I was using to try and fly to all 32 of Idaho's backcountry airstrips in my #XPlane #flightsim. Flying characteristics were horrible. Any time at any speed you tap the brakes and it nosed right over. #FAIL

Flying the rest of the mission in a 1975 Cessna 180J Skywagon. It has a 230 hp Continental O-470-S engine, and an actual working autopilot. Great STOL performer.

Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined air liner parked facing to the right. The plane is mostly white, with light and dark blue "fly VLM"on the upper forward fuselage, and "flyvlm.com" titles on the engine pods. There are dark blue diagonal "VLM" titles titles on the tail and rear fuselage, with golden outstretched wings. In the background, a grey building with dark blue supporting frames fills the width of the image, with grey sky above it.Side view of a twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, parked facing to the left. The plane is mostly white, with a blue diagonal band around the middle of the fuselage, just ahead of the wings, with blue "Fly Denim" titles on the lower forward fuselage. The rear fuselage and tail are red, with the silver outline of a bird, seemingly made of a folded piece of paper. The engine pods are red, with silver "Fly Denim" titles. Behind the nose is a small, white ground power unit. Behind the tail is a white jet airliner, with the engines under the wings. In the background is a grey building, with rows of luggage containers next to metal cages., with trees visible over the top of the building.Side view of a single engined general aviation aircraft parked facing to the left. The plane is almost entirely a gloss black, with a blue and yellow stripe running along the body and diagonally up the tail. There are white "Skydive Scotland" titles over a blue phone mumber in the middle of the fuselage, and in a smaller form over a stylised image of a white parachutist under a plue parachute on the tail. In the background, hills lined with trees stretch across the whole image, under a grey sky.
