Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner parked on a runway facing to the left. The plane has a very pale blue, thick stripe running along the body under the passenger cabin windows, with a green stylised flying bird that looks as if drawn by a single stroke of a brush behind the cockpit, and green "Cathay Pacific" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The tail is green with a larger white version of the bird logo. The upturned wingtips are also green, this time with just the tips of the birds wings bleeding through from the white underside of the planes wings. The engine pods slung under the wings are the same pale blue as the body stripe. A wide strip of green grass dominates the foreground, with a black mesh metal fence stretching across the bottom of the frame. In the distance, grey hangars can be seen under the planes nose, with a wide grey terminal under the mid and rear fuselage, Blue sky with smears of thin grey cloud fill the rest of the frame.

Head-on view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing towards the camera, it's nose-wheel turned to it's left. The plane is almost entirely white, with a red tail and engine pods. There are large, purple, billboard-style "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the sides of the forward fuselage. An image of a female figure wearing a short red dress and trailing a red, white, and blue British flag from one wrist. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground and most of the background, with the white, blue, red, and orange rear fuselage and tail of another airliner in the background on the left.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner lining up on a grey runway as it prepares for take-off. The plane is largely white, with large, thin, purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the upper forward fuselage, mostly between the windows of the upper and lower decks. There is an image of a flying woman, wearing a red leotard, and wearing a UK flag as a cape, under the cockpit windows at the front of the upper deck. The partial registration "-VAST" can be seen on the lower rear fuselage, the last two letters "ST" also appearing on the open nose-wheel doors. The tail and rear fuselage are a shiny, scarlet redd, with seemingly hand-drawn, white "Virgin" titles across the middle, and the small white letters "ST" right at the top. The engine pods are a similar shiny scarlet, as are the up-turned wing-tips. Green grass fills the foreground, with a couple of bushes in the bottom left corner, and black metal mesh fence supported by black metal poles runs across the bottom of the frame. More grass is visible in the background, under the body of this plane, with a terminal building on the right, with several planes parked against it. Pale blue sky with wisps of white cloud fill the top of the frame.

Front side view of a brown, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left and slightly to the left of the camera along a grey taxiway. There is large, black text "I Heart Cook s Club" on the side of the forward fuselage, the word "Heart" being replaced by a large yellow love heart symbol, covering the passenger cabin windows, with smaller text "New Generation Hotels" below. This latter text is repeated on the upper rear fuselage, with the black registration "G-TCDV" next to a small UK flag on the lower rear. A diagonal yellow band wraps around the rear fuselage, immediately followed by a diagonal grey band that wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with another, much larger, yellow love heart filling the tail. The engine pods, hanging under the wings, are the same bright yellow. Grey concrete taxiway fills the foreground, with a white jet airliner with large blue text that partially reads "YanAIr"" on the forward fuselage, just coming into the background on the right. Blue-grey sky fills the rest of the frame.
