Front side view of a twin engined jet airliner parked facing to the right, nose-in to it's gate, as seen from inside the terminal building. The plane is largely white, with large, red, apparently hand written "Leisure" titles on the forward fuselage and a thick blue strip running along the body under a thin red pinstripe. The black registration "G-UKLJ" is on the upper rear fuselage, with the last two letters, LJ, repeated on the open nose-gear doors. The tail is white, with half of a waving UK flag in the middle. The bed of a white and pink catering truck is raised to the open rear door of the plane, with a low, white, baggage belt by an open cargo door in the belly just behind the wings, and another cargo door open in front of the wings. In the background, on the right, a brown and cream terminal building stretches across the frame from the right, with a couple of planes parked in front, with pale blue sky filling the rest of the frame.

Side view of a high-winged, 34 propellor-engined military transport aircraft parked facing to the right on a black runway, with it's cargo ramp in the rear fuselage deployed, with a vehicle moving along the runway that has obviously just come out of the back of the plane. The plane is covered in a grey and green-brown camouflage scheme, with small "Royal Air Force" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, the large black number "218" under the cockpit windows on the nose. There is a large blue and red roundel on the side of the rear fuselage, followed by the small serial "XV218". The black number "218" is repeated on the tail, over a blue and red fin flash. Green grass fills the foreground, with more grass on the far side of the runway. More grass in the background leads up to a pair of white and blue jet fighters on the left, and blue hangars on left and right, with trees beyond, under flat white sky.

White spats cover all 3 wheels, with blue stripe running along each one2 people can be seen i the rather cramped, fully glazed cockpit.
