Side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from right to left along a black runway. The plane is mostly white, with 2 thin light green stripes and a slightly thicker dark green stripe running along the body, with dark green "Manx" titles on the upper forward fuselage, green "ATP" titles just aft of the forward door, and the green registration "G-MAUD" just aft of the rear door. The tail is the same dark green, with a thick red band outlined in white, with a white triskeles made up of 3 armoured legs with spurs on the heels, joined at the hip, and seeming to run in a circle to the right. The top of the tail has white "Manx" titles at the top. Lush green grass fills the foreground, with more grass visible under the plane, leading up to trees in the distance, under grey sky.
