Side view of a squat and boxy, high-winged, twin propellor-engined 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. The plane is mostly white, with a dark green stripe running along the bottom of the fuselage, below a couple of thin, lighter green pinstripes. There are dark green "Manx" titles on the forward fuselage, under the cockpit, repeated in a smaller form over the rear cabin door. The registration "G-LEGS" is on the upper rear fuselage in black. The tail is dark green, with a thick red stripe outlined in white, under small "Manx" titles. There are 3 armoured legs, joined at the hip and running clockwise in a circle (known as a TriSkelion), on the red stripe on the tail. The plane's main landing gear is carried in sponsons mounted on stub wings on the side of the lower fuselage, with a long, thin support strut coming from the top and extending out and up, joining the wing outboard of the engines. Pale blue sky fills the background, with wisps of white cloud at the top and bottom.Side view of a squat and boxy, high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage extended from sponsors on the sides of the lower rear fuselage, and flaps extended from the rear of the wing, suggesting it is about to land. The plane is mostly white, with dark blue rear fuselage and tail, with a pair of thin white diagonal stripes covering both. The white registration "G-UBAC" is on the upper rear fuselage, and large red "BAC" and smaller blue "Express" on the lower forward fuselage. There is a support strut extending from the side of the sponsons on the lower mid-fuselage to the middle of the wing, slightly outboard of the engines. Thin white cloud with patches of blue fill the rest of the frame.
