Low side view of a twin engined jetliner with a T-tail and the engines mounted on the rear fuselage. The landing gear is down and the flaps are deployed from the rear of the wing, with the nose very slightly raised as it flies from right to left at a low altitude. The plane is mostly light blue, with a white belly, and a dak blue stripe seperating the 2 sections. There are white "KLM" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with dark blue "Cityhopper" titleson the whoite section directly below. The tail is white, with light blue "KLM" titles, under a blue crown. Behind, grey sky fills the rest of the frame.
