DLD 419: Where are the mascots?

Alt text: A group of people, including two mascots, are standing in front of an Avelo airplane on an airport tarmac. The group appears to be celebrating, with one person holding a large pair of scissors and a ribbon being cut. The airplane is painted in purple and white with the Avelo logo visible. The sky is partly cloudy, and an airport control tower is visible in the background.

Competing university mascots at an inaugural flight? Sure, why not. It is Delaware, after all.

On the runway below, there is a large white cargo airplane with the word "Cargolux" written on its side. The background includes airport buildings, vehicles, and other infrastructure. The scene appears to be at an airport with multiple runways and taxiways.
