The plane is mostly purple, with large white "FlyBe" titles over 6 white dots., with much smaller, white "Stobart Air" titles next to a white feather on the lower forward fuselage, under the nose.

Yellow and red diagonal bands around the rear body lead into the white tail and tail-cone, with diagonal two-tone blue "FlyBe" titles over 2 yellow, 2red, and 2 purple dots on the tail. At the top of the tail, just above the horizontal stabiliser, there is black "ATR 72-600" text. Green grass stretches across the foreground, lining the side of the runway,. In the background, more grass leads up to a grey terminal building in the distance, with the tail of a very large, white airliner visible over the top of this plane.
