Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with it's rearmost wheels just leaving the ground, flaps deployed from the front and rear of the wings, and the nose raised sharply, and fluff forming on top of the wings, suggesting it has just taken off, and that this is a cold and damp day. The plane has a grey top half and white lower half, with large, purple "Qatar" titles on the upper forward fuselage, with smaller, grey titles in an Arabic script a bit further aft, above the wing root. There is a small Qatari flag on the upper rear fuselage, above the black registration "A7-AEI". The up-turned wingtips are the same purple as the titles. Dark grey stripes run along the tail, overlaid with an image of an animal with a pair of horns sticking up and backwards from the top of it's head. This logo is repeated in a smaller form on the side of the grey engine pods, under the wings. Green grass fills the foreground, with a black roadway right at the bottom of the frame, and a browny-grey taxiway running from side to side a bit further up. More grass in the background leads up to trees in the distance, under flat, murky grey sky.
