WhyDeparting on runway 21 you climb out heading southwest, and Eindhoven's city center sits just east of the runway centerline, so it stays on the left side of the aircraft during the initial climb. You'll get a good look at the Philips Stadion, Strijp-S district, and the Dommel river winding through town before the view shifts to the flat Kempen farmland further out.

That puts the built-up part of the city and the Dommel river valley on the left side of the aircraft during the final few minutes of descent, while the right side mostly shows flat Brabant farmland.
