Looking at the images in Google Earth, those airplanes are from images taken before 25 May 2006, i.e. not current. You can tell because the sun shade structures aren't there in that image.

It's interesting to zoom-in on the Yahoo maps images. The aircraft aren't there until you zoom in all the way. I had thought Yahoo maps used one image and you just zoomed in to get more detail. It's obvious to me now, that they use differnt photos for different zoom levels. Very odd.

As for what those aircraft are/were, you need this context to help ID them.

Good luck.
