updates? any new pics?

wasnt Etihad gonna start passenger flights?

[Hamad]

I didnt read that Etihad gonna fly to SKT as PAX Schedule
They only start a Bus Service from LHE to Faisalabad and Sialkot

I was in August at SKT - the Terminal Building is still under construction and there are some Fans and some lights that hasnt been installed yet
The working progress is very slow.
But they add a little building on the left side of the Passenger Terminal(on the left side of the Arrival Exit)
Pakring Area, Mosque etc are well made.

You can see it at the End of this Video

I want to notice that the ATC Aircraft was at SKT every time when I visited the Airport.
I was one time in the morning at SKT and one time in the evening and both times the ATC Aircraft parked at the position as on the video showns.
Is it based at Sialkot?

^ After a lawsuit filed by PIA, on the orders of Sindh High Court, ACT Cargo Airbus A300B4-203F freighter (registration TC-ACY) was impounded at Sialkot Airport in July/August 2010 because ACT had failed to make payments to PIA for two aircraft engines that ACT was using on lease from PIA.

Don't know whether TC-ACY is still at Sialkot Airport or has been allowed to leave Sialkot Airport.
