Front view of a very large, 4-engined jet airliner being disconnected from a low-slung white tug that has just pushed it back from it's stand. The plane is almost entirely white, with a red tail with indistinct white markings on the side. There are large, thin, purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the side of the upper fuselage, with an image of a flying woman wearing a ed leotard and trailing a waving United Kingdom flag from her left wrist, under the cockpit windows, above the small black text "Ruby Tuesday". Grey concrete apron with a slight pink tint fills the foreground, with a different type of tug and a baggage loader following a roadway marked on the surface. More concrete apron fills the near background, with the blue rear fuselage and tail of another jet airliner coming into frame on the left. A ground level car park in the distance stretches across the frame, with trees beyond, under a grey sky.

Side view of a single-engined BizProp taxiing from right to left on a black taxiway. The plane is white on top and towards the front, and black on the bottom and to the rear, separated by a brown stripe that swoops along the fuselage. The brown registration "N5347V" outlined in white and with a gold drop shadow is on the side of the lower rear fuselage. A pair of gold stripes run along the forward fuselage, one above the brown stripe, the other below, with a thin gold band wrapped around the tail-cone and tail. The pilot can be seen through the cockpit window, with black text "Piper" on the side of the upper fuselage just behind him. Green grass lines both sides of the runway at the bottom of the frame, with more grass separating taxiways and a runway in the background, and more grass leading off to trees and bushes in the distance, slowly vanishing into mist.
