Runway23Left

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from left to right along a grey taxiway. There are large, grey "Helvetic" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, covering the passenger cabin windows, above smaller grey "Airways" titles. The grey registration "HB-JVF" is on the sides of the white engine pods mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage.

Lush green grass fills the foreground, while there is a blue and white airliner trying to sneak out of frame on the left of the background, and rolling hills in the distance, under bright but hazy sky.

The plane is mostly white, with thin gold and red pinstripes running along the body, and large gold "Etihad" titles on the upper fuselage, over the wings, in English, with smaller titles in an Arabic script a bit further forward. Additional golden text "From Abu Dhabi To The World" just above the gold and red strip on the forward fuselage. The tail has a golden bird with wings partially extended, and a circular version of the flag of the United Arab Emirates on the chest, in the middle.
