I think Sindh tail colours have been slightly modified and made darker, note that both ATR and 773 colours are different to the tail on 74M, now they look more like the tile work shades in use.

abolutely amzaing pictures....look very beautiful.......
youis I'd agree the steps are a little too low....
coyboy, perhaps the paint looks lighter coz the jumbo is far away, so light and because it was painted some time before BHV and BHJ.

From what I’ve heard these tails are not painted it’s the sticker pasted on the tail, CoyBoy observed really well the design seems to be lighter than the one BHV and BHJ has.

As far as the pictures are concerned, they look great and I have the same opinion like yours Iqbal that the place seems to be very colorful with all these different beautiful tails.

Thanks for sharing!

The Sindh tails on 773 and ATR are definitely darker or is the BAK tail faded??? Is this bird going out of service soon?

Its great to see more and more PIA aircraft in the new tail colours, which I am a big fan of!!

Well done Iqbal.
