VirginAtlantic

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner lining up on a grey runway as it prepares for take-off. The plane is largely white, with large, thin, purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the upper forward fuselage, mostly between the windows of the upper and lower decks. There is an image of a flying woman, wearing a red leotard, and wearing a UK flag as a cape, under the cockpit windows at the front of the upper deck. The partial registration "-VAST" can be seen on the lower rear fuselage, the last two letters "ST" also appearing on the open nose-wheel doors. The tail and rear fuselage are a shiny, scarlet redd, with seemingly hand-drawn, white "Virgin" titles across the middle, and the small white letters "ST" right at the top. The engine pods are a similar shiny scarlet, as are the up-turned wing-tips. Green grass fills the foreground, with a couple of bushes in the bottom left corner, and black metal mesh fence supported by black metal poles runs across the bottom of the frame. More grass is visible in the background, under the body of this plane, with a terminal building on the right, with several planes parked against it. Pale blue sky with wisps of white cloud fill the top of the frame.

Side view of a very large, white, 4 engined jet airliner moving from right to left . The plane is mostly white, with purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a scarlet red rear fuselage and tail, with white "Virgin" titles. The upturned wing-tips have part of a waving Union Flag. The engine pods slung under the wings are the same scarlet red, with the rear 1/3rd of the cowling having moved backwards to expose the thrust reversers, which along with the flaps hanging from the rear of the wings is slowing the plane after landing. Taxiways lined with strips of grass fill the foreground, with a grey terminal building with several planes parked in front of it stretching across the frame, under grey-blue skies.

Front side view of a brown, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left and slightly to the left of the camera along a grey taxiway. There is large, black text "I Heart Cook s Club" on the side of the forward fuselage, the word "Heart" being replaced by a large yellow love heart symbol, covering the passenger cabin windows, with smaller text "New Generation Hotels" below. This latter text is repeated on the upper rear fuselage, with the black registration "G-TCDV" next to a small UK flag on the lower rear. A diagonal yellow band wraps around the rear fuselage, immediately followed by a diagonal grey band that wraps around the rear fuselage and tail, with another, much larger, yellow love heart filling the tail. The engine pods, hanging under the wings, are the same bright yellow. Grey concrete taxiway fills the foreground, with a white jet airliner with large blue text that partially reads "YanAIr"" on the forward fuselage, just coming into the background on the right. Blue-grey sky fills the rest of the frame.
