Side view of a white, twin propellor-engined airliner, facing to the right, suspended on white metal supports under the wings and fuselage. The white fuselage has paint stripped off the belly with the remnants of red paint on the bottom of the nose cone, with the red tail almost hidden behind the wing. Grey concrete fills the lower half of the frame, with a strong shadow being cast on the ground. Green storage containers and trees are visible under the planes body, with blue sky and scattered fluffy white cloud above.

Side view of a white, high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner parked facing to the right. There are large, billboard-style "TAT" titles on the forward fuselage, above smaller "European Airlines" titles. There are smaller, blue "TAT" titles under the cockpit, next to a small, yellow square with a stylised blue flying bird. This same logo appears in a larger form on the tail, The registration "F-GKOD" is on the upper rear fuselage in blue, almost obscured by bright sunlight reflecting off the fuselage. A tree is in the middle of the frame at the bottom, with a white truck behind it. A refueling truck is on the left of the frame, in front of this plane. Trees and large grassed areas with taxiways and a runway fill the rest of the background.
