Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude with undercarriage lowered, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is largely white, with blue, billboard-style "FinnAir" titles on the forward fuselage, and the blue registration "OH-LTR" between Finnish and EU flags on the upper rear fuselage. The tail has a stylised, reversed, blue letter "F". Flat white clouds fill the rest of the frame.

Side view of a 3 engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane is mostly white, with a green and red cheatline running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows, and red titles in an Arabic script on the upper forward fuselage. The belly is grey, with black "Boeing 727-200" titles on the forward fuselage. The black registration "CN-RMQ" is on the centre engine inlet above the rear fuselage, next to a Morrocan flag. The other engines are mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, under the tail. The tail itself is white, with the outline of a 5-pointed green stan with a red swoosh behind it, over red "RAM" text. The foreground is filled with metal luggage containers and vehicles, while the background has large grassed areas either side of a black runway, with a taxiway and several buildings beyond that, with flat white sky over everything.
