Was there ever a two or three page article in Airliner world on PIA ????

[Imran Hassan]

Yes there was on 2 occasions.

By the way I have just realised there is a small pic of AirBlue in Jan'06 issue, it states their desire to fly to Dubai from KHI. By the way do they really expect to compete with EK.

Was there ever a two or three page article in Airliner world on PIA ????

Yes there was i think three times. They were very interesting articles with lots of colourful images of PIA aircraft from the past and present.

There has also been on one occassion a large A310 in 1990s colours on the front cover! ( I believe the image is on HOP website )
