Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from right to left and slightly away from the camera at a low altitude, with the undercarriage already retracted, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is mostly white, with red titles in a Hindi script, translating to "Air India", on the upper forward fuselage, and the red registration "VT-ANQ" on the lower rear, just above red "DreamLiner" text. The passenger cabin windows each have individual, red crenelated arches painted around them. The tail and part of the rear fuselage are red, with the petals of an orange flower extended outwards. Vivid blue sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner flying from right to left at a very low altitude, with flaps extended from the rear of the wings, the undercarriage being retracted, and the nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. The plane is largely dark grey, with a lighter grey belly, and large mauve "Qatar" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, partially covering the lower passenger deck windows. A small Qatari flag is under the rear upper deck windows, with the black registration "A7-APE" under the rear lower deck windows on the lighter grey belly. The tail is the same grey, with darker grey stripes overlaid with the mauve and light grey head of a goat-type animal; with a pair of horn on the top of it's head, a logo replicated on the sides of the engine pods under the wings. The registration is repeated under the outer panels of the wings, out-board of the engines. The up- and down-turned wingtip fences are painted in the same mauve as the various logos. Blue sky with occasional fluffs of white white-grey cloud in the bottom half fill the rest of the frame.
