Logo: On a black background, a crudely-drawn propeller spins and stops. When it stops, the words "АЭР" and "ПЛАН" appears, making the propeller's center look like the "O" letter. The words "ПРОДЮСЕРСКАЯ КОМПАНИЯ" appear on the top and the bottom (a la Castle Home Video's 1st logo).

Variants:

• On the trailer for the canceled The Fixies prototype film (2008), the logo is placed on a white background and the texts are in English. It's also a still logo.
• Since 2021, the words "ПРОДЮСЕРСКАЯ КОМПАНИЯ" are replaced with "студия анимации".

FX/SFX: The propeller spinning, and the words appearing.

Music/Sounds: Propeller buzzing.

Availability: Current and common. It was initially debuted as a print logo, however, it didn't receive an animated version until 2010. Seen on The Fixies and both of the movies based on the franchise.
