A Prestwick-based airline has taken the next steps in its plans to launch passenger flights in 2025.
Global Airlines, which has based its first A380 aircraft at the South Ayrshire airport, has started the process of applying its livery to the plane.
The aircraft arrived at Prestwick Airport earlier this year to much fanfare, and has been parked up on the apron ever since.
The Global livery is now being created on the side of the plane, with works also ongoing on the interior of the cabin.
The work is being carried out by Airbourne Colours, who said: "Airbourne Colours recently completed the initial phase of a new livery identity on Global Airlines first Airbus A380.
"Our skilled team worked tirelessly at Glasgow Prestwick Airport to bring this aircraft to life with the application of the Global Airlines name.
"We look forward to working with the Global Airlines team on the next chapter of this fantastic journey."
Headed by entrepreneur James Asquith, Global Airlines is aiming to run services to New York and Los Angeles from London next year.
