Side view of a twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the fuselage, flying from left to right at a very low altitude, it's main wheels just a couple of feet above the ground. There are flaps fully extended from behind the wing, and the nose is raised sharply, suggesting it is landing. The plane is mostly white, with blue "Air Littoral" titles on the upper forward fuselage. The tail has the blue outline of a circle, with 3 stylised blue flying birds inside. Grass fills the foreground, with more grass on the other side of the runway leading up to trees in the distance, with the fuselage of an old 3 engined jet airliner looking rather forlorn in front of them. Above it all, the sky is a flat grey. — F-GIO_, Fokker F100, Air Littoral, about to touch down on Runway 24 at Manchester Airport, some time in the 1990s, as seen from car park 3.
Notice the Trident looking rather sorry for itself on the fire dump.
