Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right.
The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, rear fuselage, and tail, with a green-blue pinstripe.
There are large blue, billboard-style "SpanAir" titles on the forward fuselage, and the black registration "G-MCEA" on the upper rear fuselage.
The tail has red, yellow, and greeny-blue spiky shapes, similar to forks, overlaid on each other.
The engine pods under the wings are also this dark blue.
In the foreground, a large crowd of people are standing in front of a tall, black, chain-link fence, mostly watching this plane.
Green grass is visible in the background under the plane, leading up to trees in the distance.
Very pale sky with fluffs of white cloud fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane has a deep blue belly, sweeping up to cover the entire tail, with the rest of the fuselage being white. There are large "Spanair" titles on the forward fuselage, and what looks like 3-pointed pennants on the tail, in green and red, overlaid by a yellow one at an angle. In the foreground, a crowd of people are watching through a chainlink fence, while large grassed areas lead off to trees in the background, under a horrible grey sky.Front view of a silver single engined light aircraft parked facing just slightly off to the right of the camera. There is a rather intricate design on the side of the body in polished silver, red, and yellow, with the registration "ZS-SUB" below it on the rear fuselage in a very reflective, colour-changing material. The left cockpit door is open, hinged forwards and upwards. In the background, several people in yellow hi-viz vests are visible, clustered around several other planes. A large grey hanar is in the top left corner, next to a clump of trees running along the rear of the frame, with hazy blue skies making up the rest of the image.Rear view of a 4 engined jet airliner, with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, and a T-tail. The plane is mostly white, with a grey belly, and thick green and blue stripes running along the body. There are blue "Uzbekistan" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a white stylised flying bird on the blue tail. In the background is a general view across the airfield, the far reaches of which vanish into grey haze.Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at low altitude with the nose raised at a rather steep angle and landing gear still lowered.
