Side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing away from the camera. The plane is largely white, with a deep purple belly and engine pods under the wings, and yellow rear fuselage and tail. There are blue "Olympus" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "SX-ACP" on the lower rear. The tail has a blue image of the head of a person with long, flowing hair, wearing a floral crown, and with chains of flowers behind them. Strong sunlight from the upper right corner casts a shadow under the plane towards the bottom left. The plane is parked facing a strip of grass with a mesh metal barrier on the other side, with a large concrete area beyond filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black taxiway. The plane is largely white, with dark blue "Air France" titles just ahead of a short, diagonal red band on the upper forward fuselage. The black registration "F-HZUR" is on the upper rear fuselage, with the last 2 letters repeated on the front of the open nose-wheel doors. There is additional black text "Airbus A220-300" on the lower rear fuselage. The white tail has a series of diagonal blue bands, thicker by the leading edge and getting thinner as they move rearwards, with a thicker red stripe at the lower rear, as well as a small circle of gold stars of the top of the tails. There is the blue outline of a white circle, containing a stylised image of a winged blue sea-horse, in the middle of the white engine pods, repeated on the side of the forward fuselage, in between the cockpit windows and the forward door. The up-turned wing-tips are entirely dark blue. A black mesh fence topped with razor-wire stretches across the bottom of the frame, with a small group of people on this side of the fence. Grass leads up to the taxiway the plane is on, with more grass and taxiways in the background, with the rear fuselage of a white, red, and black airliner on a runway facing out of the right of the frame in the distance. Rows of trees beyond that meet the cloudy grey sky.

Side view of a helicopter hovering a couple of metres above a dark grey taxiway, facing to the right. The helicopter is black, with a silver and orange stripe swooping across the forward fuselage and along the tail boom. The silver registration "G-DCAM" is on the side of the engine pod on top of the fuselage. The main and tail rotors are spinning, and exhaust from the rear of the engine is creating jellied air behind it. Black taxiway fills most of the foreground, with grass on the left. A heavily glazed grey terminal building fills most of the background, under bright but hazy sky.

The plane is largely white, with black, blue, purple, red, orange, and yellow stripes along the body forming a stylised image of the body of an eagle, with similarly coloured stripes on the top and bottom surfaces of the wings and horizontal stabiliser suggesting wing feathers. There is small black text "Christen Eagle" on the upper rear fuselage, just aft of the large bubble canopy, and the black registration "G-GULZ" on the tail. Three men can be seen standing on the far side of the plane, between the cockpit and engine, with one of them seeming to show the other two something.

A large yellow love-heart fills the middle of the tail, with bright yellow matching engine pods mounted under the wings. Grass lines both sides of the taxiway, as well as another taxiway and a runway in the background. Grey sky fills most of the rest of the frame, with a bright spot on the upper middle.
