KLM Over the Wing In-flight photos/videos
I saw a thread like this in another airline and thought we could inspire and daydream from sharing our photos. I searched for one already and didn't see any.
This thread is specifically for views of wings, engines and any background scenery, and views we often have have while gazing out the window.
Please remember, this thread is for scenic photos, not cabin interiors, seats, or for topics found elsewhere.
Hope this inspires you during your coffee break!
here is one of mine on one of the last MD11 flights from AMS-YYZ
2013
and a different plane coming into Schiphol

Bit of a challenge. I generally select a seat as far foward as possible (but avoiding the bulkhead on shorthauls planes), so I really have to crane my neck to squeeze engine and wing into the picture. Not only that, but I mostly intentionally keep aircraft parts out of the frame. Nevertheless, I should be able to scrounge up a few.
Westeinde, Berkhout, Oosteinde, Scharwoude & Hoorn.
Noordzeekanaal, Zijkanaal B, Velserbroek, Driehuis, IJmuiden, Velsen Noord, Nationaal Park Zuid-Kennemerland - and a little bit of the engine cowling. Hello Polderbaan! Here I come!

Somewhere above the clouds at sunset
An impossible photo to take anymore these days, from onboard an F70 on the way from NUE to AMS
A steep bank on the way to PRG
Approaching NUE
Blue skies with a few clouds somewhere
Dramatic clouds as we approach AMS

Just realized this thread wouldn’t be complete without a take-off view from KL’s most flown route(*): Krakow.
KRK take-off with the dawn mist glowing.
(*) according to a statistical analysis of airports mentions on FlyerTalk, KRK must have the frequentation of CDG+AMS+FRA combined

I generally try to keep the equipment out of these pictures. So a 'wingless' one somewhere around GVA:
Edit: Found one! Heavy bank during a CDG approach, showing three other flights around us.
