Side view of a twin engined jet airliner moving from right to left along a black runway, with flaps extended from under the rear of the wings, spoilers deployed on top of the rear of the wing, and the rear section of the engine pods under the wings slid back, revealing the thrust reversers, suggesting this is decelerating hard after landing. The plane is mostly with, with a blue swirl around the lower forward fuselage, and another around the upper mid- and rear fuselage, with black "Tailwind" titles on the upper forward fuselage, next to a highly stylised image of a dark and light blue flying bird with wings stretched upwards.
