The large grey aircraft is a P-3 Orion, used by the US Navy and several European nations (among others...) for anti-submarine and maritime surveillance duties. The large stinger boom on the tail is an easy way to ID it. The small, single-engine aircraft looks like a Pilatus PC-12. It is used as for passenger and cargo service in the civilian world, but there are several government and military operators as well.

wonder if anyone can zoom in on the p3 or pilatus and get any registration info ?
