Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left along a grey runway. The plane is mostly white, with silver "Scandinavian Airlines" titles above and below the forward cabin windows, and a dark blue tail with white "SAS" titles. The engine pods under the wings are bright orange at the front, with white "Scandinavian" titles, and a white rear section. Green grass fills the foreground, with a tall black tower looming over the plane in the background, under blue-grey skies.

Side view of a light blue, twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. Th top half of the plane is light blue, with a thick grey stripe separating that from the white belly. There are dark blue "Korean Air" titles on the upper forward fuselage, a slightly modified, red, blue, and white Yin-Yang symbol replacing the letter "O". That same symbol appears on the tail, and on the sides of the white engine pods under the wings. Flat grey sky fills the background.
