Low front view of a 3 engined jet airliner parked facing to the right on gravel. The plane is white on top, with a grey lower half, and a thick stripe that used to be dark blue but is now faded to dark green running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows. There are red and white letters "BEA" on the upper forward fuselage, and a partial UK flag on the now-green tail. The underside of the wings is red. A long yellow pushback pole is attached to the nosewheel. White airstairs are attached to the front and rear cabin doors on the far side of the plane. Trees fill the background on the left of the frame, with a rather square and boxy green metal frame taking up most of the rest of the background, and the grey tail of another plane on the right, all under gorgeous blue sky.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner moving from right to left along a runway with the rear panel of one of the engines slid back, exposing the thrust reversers, suggesting it has just landed. The plane is mostly white, with large gold "Emirates" titles in English on the upper forward fuselage, between the 2 rows of passenger windows, and smaller titles in an Arabic script a bit further back, over the wings. A waving United Arab Emirates flag (red vertical bar on the left, with equal green, white, and black stripes on the right) covers the tail and part of the rear fuselage. Golden calligraphic art made up of the characters that make up the airlines Arabic name adorns the engine pods, the cowling of the inner engines split as the rear portion has moved backwards to expose the thrust reversers. Another runway stretches across the foreground, lined by green grass, while a pair of large grey hangars dominate the background, under pale blue-grey sky.
