Concord
Constellation? No clue, but it is green and has 4 engines
I'm guessing Dehavilland DHC-7.  It's yellow, the throttle is up top and there are 4 engines
and I was going to say Nimrod on this one as well, or maybe it's a VC-10.  Definitely looks british.

Well the first one was nice and easy, you're getting close with #4. So far I'm not impressed....
