Low front view of a 3 engined jet airliner parked facing to the right on gravel. The plane is white on top, with a grey lower half, and a thick stripe that used to be dark blue but is now faded to dark green running along the body, covering the passenger cabin windows. There are red and white letters "BEA" on the upper forward fuselage, and a partial UK flag on the now-green tail. The underside of the wings is red. A long yellow pushback pole is attached to the nosewheel. White airstairs are attached to the front and rear cabin doors on the far side of the plane. Trees fill the background on the left of the frame, with a rather square and boxy green metal frame taking up most of the rest of the background, and the grey tail of another plane on the right, all under gorgeous blue sky.

Side view of a white, high-winged, twin propellor-engined light aircraft, parked facing to the left in a brown brick hangar. The plane has a pair of green stripes running along the body, widening as they move rearwards, and a green tail outlined in white. The fixed undercarriage has spats covering the top of the wheels, with the top half painted green, the lower half in white. The registration "G-BFBD" is on the rear fuselage in black. Several light aircraft can be seen parked in the background on the left, behind this plane's nose. Brown brick walls stretch across the background, with grey vertical metal support beams at intervals. Boarded-up windows fill the top of the walls.
