What happened to AP-BID? 777-300ER

Post by Faisal777 »

What happened to PIA's AP-BID? Is it in maintenance? Seems to have not flown for the last few months which is quite surprising for the summer months.

Flew on AP-BID on 309, ISB-KHI on Sunday 10th August. Engines sounded smooth as ever, and with what I think was a direct route we completed the journey in 1:27. She's a beautiful bird and I deliberately chose the longest line to board before the steps so that I could take in every bit of the view as possible!
Aah I love the PIA livery on the 777!!!
