Side view of an almost all-white, 3 engined jet airliner being towed from left to right by a low-slung white tug attached to the nose-wheel. There are large, blue, billboard-style "AOM" titles on the forward fuselage, with stylised red flying bird that resembles an almost straight line over the top, a logo repeated in a smaller form on the tail. There is a smaller, white jet airliner with the same logo on it's forward fuselage in the background on the left, parked in front of a white building with multiple red slanted roofs. Next to that building, towards the centre of the image is a squat, grey building with a tall grey tower poking up from corner, with a heavily glazed top level and several clock faces suspended underneath. Grass leads off into the distance, slowly vanishing into murky grey haze.

Side view of a white and red, single engined light aircraft parked facing to the right. The top half of the body is white, the lower half is red, and the horizontal tail-plane and ends of the wings are also red. There is a red, white, and blue roundel just aft of the over-sized, bulbous cockpit canopy, and a blue, whit, and red fin flash on the white tail. The serial "XX620" is on the rear fuselage in black, partially obscured by the tail-plane. A larger, white, World War 2-era airliner is parked in the background, with a green stripe running along the body, and the registration "G-AMPZ" in green on the rear fuselage.
