The A320 is from a flight simulator. the reason i added it was because I didnt have any further pics of Shaheen air in different liveries or planes and i had quiete a few remaining seconds of the slide show so i decided to fill it in with something different

Hello to everybody!

Today I joined this forum to let you know, that I am the
person who shot the Shaheen A300 N72986 at Frankfurt
in february 1995.

The aircraft was on its delivery flight and passed through FRA
for a fuel stop.

I am also the photographer of the Shaheen B737-200 APBEW
shown in this thread. I made this shot at KHI on 27th of
february 1996.

At the same day I also took a picture of MD80 EC-GBY with
blue tail and Shaheen International titles. The aircraft was leased
from spanish airline called Oasis.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask :D

Hi Abbas,

yes I am doing slides since 1979 so I shot
plenty of Pakistani aircraft since I started.

My home airport is Frankfurt so I have lots of PIA
B707, B742, B743, A310, A300, B772, B773

In DXB and SHJ I took F27, B733, A300 and also
other airlines like Aero Asia, Bhoja.

Hi Abbas,

what about uploading the pics in this forum?
I think Pakistani aviation pics do fit in here well :D


What would be the best size? 1024pix wide?

^ Beautiful photo :thumbs_up: Thank you for sharing.

I would like to suggest you to post photos in forum category named 'PIA & Pakistan Aviation Photos Forum' where more forum visitors will be able to see your photos of Pakistani aircraft.

In 'PIA & Pakistan Aviation Photos Forum' you may start a new topic for display of Pakistani aircraft photos taken by you.

Looking forward to seeing more photos.

guys how come you think the Shaheen A320 is a fake? They actually did lease and operate a 320, the first pic is clearly NOT from flight simulator, you can even see the black copyright bar at the bottom of it!

enjoy.
