a) Tropical rainforest

b) Central America possibly Caribbean Island, but probably mainland.

Thought it might have been Belize City but overcome with a desire to find out what aeroplane it was taken from. Gave up on that one too as I have too much homework today, therefore would appreciate the aircraft answer to put me out of my misery.

Not quite folks, I'm wondering if this one is a touch too tricky...

Well, the aircraft in the previous photo is the mighty ATP

It's a small island, part of a volcanic archipelago.
Here's another view
