Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left on a grey runway. The plane is largely white, with a purple, orange, and gold stripe running along the body from just behind the cockpit, with the gold section at the bottom getting slightly wider as it moves backwards, running under the rear fuselage. There are purple "Singapore Airlines" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to a large Singapore" flag. The tail is purple, with a stylised golden flying bird with wings extended, and an orange stripe on the rear of the tail. Green grass fills the foreground, lining the side of the runway, with a large terminal building in the background, visible under the plane, with several planes parked next to it. Pale blue sky with grey smears of thin cloud fill the top half of the frame.

Low side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very 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 an orange stripe running from the top of the fuselage above the cockpit to the lower fuselage behind the wing, orange engine pods mounted under the wings, orange flap track covers under the wings, and a diagonal orange band wrapped around the rear fuselage and tail. There are diagonal white "EasyJet" titles on the tail, and the black registration "G-EZOU" on the side of the upper rear fuselage and under the outer panels of the left wing, as well as the last 2 letters of the registration "OU" on the open nose wheel doors. The orange up-turned wing-tips have the same diagonal white "EasyJet" titles as on the tail. At the bottom of the frame, a road runs from one side to the other, with a tall, grey, metal fence behind, with tall yellow metal towers with lights on top. A white car is parked in a layby on the bottom left. Blue sky with fluffs of white sky fills the rest of the frame.
