Side view of a white, high-winged, twin propellor-engined plane flying from right to left at a low altitude, with undercarriage fully extended from the rear of the engine nacelles, and flaps slightly extended from the rear of the wings, suggesting it is about to land.
There is a red lion standing on it's rear legs on the l;ower forward fuselage, just forward of the dopor, with blue "LuxAir" titles below the passenger cabin windows just aft of the door.
There is the blue outline of a circle containing a stylised blue flying bird on the sides of the engine nacelle.
The tail is red and the top, blue at the bottom, and has a white stripe in between these colours, and is textured to look like cloth, so that it resembles a waving flag - specifically, the flag of Luxembourg.
The same "flying bird in a circle" logo is at the top of the tail, except this time it is a white outline of a circle and a white bird.
Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.
