Close-up of the up-turned wingtip, wing, and centre-fuselage of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the left on its gate, taken from near-enough under the wing, obviously on the apron. The plane is mostly white, with a dark blue belly, and a thin yellow stripe separating the 2 colours. There are dark blue "RyanAir" titles next to a dark blue winged Irish harp on the side of the forward fuselage, the last few letters obscured by the wing. The wing itself is white, with the black registration "EI-DLI" on the underside. The winglet on the end is dark blue, with diagonal yellow "RyanAir" titles. Dramatic grey sky, with ominous fluffs of grey among bright white clouds fill the rest of the frame.

Elevated side view of a twin propellor-engined airliner parked facing to the left. The plane has a grey upper half, with black "British Airways" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a dark blue ower half, with a red pin-stripe running along the body, ending in a half arrowhead at the front. The grey registration "G-BTPF" is on the lower rear fuselage, next to the open rear passenger door. The tail is dark blue on the top half, with a grey heraldic crest, and grey at the bottom, with a dark blue and red triangle towards the rear. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a grey metal mesh blast barrier on the bottom left corner, while the background has more apron leading up to a terminal building whit a white airbridge with the Manchester Airport logo hanging off the side. The centre fuselage and engines of a white jet airliner can be seen in the top left corner. A re-fueling truck and a couple of laden baggage trucks can be seen parked in the background.
