Rear side view of a 4 propellor engined cargo plane parked facing to the right and away from the camera on a wet, black apron area.
The plane is largely white, with black "Hunting Cargo Airlines" on the upper middle fuselage, above the wings, and the black registration "G-FIZU" on the lower rear.
The tail is a dark purple, almost black, with a silvery-grey, winged hunting horn filling most of the space.
The rear fuselage overhangs a large patch of sodden grass in the foreground, and a thin red support pole is attached to the tail, reaching down to rest on the grass.
In the background, a dark blue hangar with the white word "Bristow" on the front can be seen over the top of this plane, with a blue, red, and white helicopter partially visible under the tail.
Rolling green hills in the distance slowly vanish into hazy grey cloud.

The number "06" is repeated in white on the front of the engine cowling. The black serial "XX522" is visible under the horizontal stabiliser on the rear fuselage. Green grass fills the foreground and a good part of the background, leading up to trees and bushes lining the airfield perimeter. A man with short dark hair and wearing a yellow hi-viz vest is standing on the far side of the planes rear fuselage, accompanied by a pair of children, with the head of one wearing a hat visible over the top of the plane, and 2 pairs of legs wearing short trousers visible below. Blue sky over rolling hills in the far distance completes the image.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner with a pale blue belly, blue engine pods under the wings, a blue tail with a yellow heart in the middle, and partially obscured blue "Thomas Cook.com" titles on the forward fuselage. The plane is flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with it's undercarriage tucked away, flaps extended from the rear of the wing, and it's nose raised sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.
