Side view of a very large, 4-engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings. The plane is mostly white, with a red band around the rear fuselage and tail. There are black "Qantas" titles on the forward fuselage, with a yellow image of a kangaroo above the green word "Wallabies" on the side of the rear fuselage. The red tail has a stylised white kangaroo, wearing a yellow vest with a green collar. The red tail logo is repeated on the rear of each of the white engines, mounted under the wings. Flat white sky fills the rest of the frame.
