Corsair

The nose and forward fuselage of a large, military jet bomber aircraft, mounted on a red metal cradle, and pointed to the right of the frame. The remnant of the plane is mostly covered in a faded grey and brown camouflage scheme, with a pale grey belly, and a large, blue and red roundel on the side of the fuselage, under the cockpit. A white sign can be seen on the front of the metal cradle, the top reading "Tickets for the Vulcan cockpit", the rest being cut off. Cars can be seen in the background, parked on a large grassed area, with white buildings in the distance on the right, and rolling hills on the left, under grim grey sky.

Side view of a twin-engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude, with undercarriage still lowered, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is white, with dark blue "Air France" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to a short, diagonal, red stripe, with the black registration "F-GKXM" on the upper rear fuselage. The tail is white, with a series of 3 dark blue diagonal stripes, the thickest at the front and the thinnest at the rear, followed by a shorter, thick red stripe, and a circle made up of small gold stars at the top of the first stripe. Bright sunlight reflects strongly from the side of the fuselage, mostly running along the area around the passenger cabin windows, and the tail. Blue sky with a hint of grey haze fills the rest of the frame.
