A KLM Cityhopper Embraer ERJ-175, registration PH-EXJ performing flight KL-1057 from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Norwich,EN (UK), was climbing out of Amsterdam when ATC queried the crew because of their low speed. The crew explained they had had a lightning strike and maintenance wanted them back at Amsterdam. The aircraft subsequently turned around and returned to Amsterdam for a safe landing on runway 27 about 50 minutes after departure.

The aircraft is still on the ground in Amsterdam about 27 hours after landing back.
