You're welcome all. Glad you like it.
I used real photos for the tail design, photo shopped the city titles , and the design from the PIA site banner.
Also, I like my BGP repaint better......its the first Punjab I have done, but I have already done Baluchistan 747.....so Punjab was exciting.......
anyways, get your hours up so you can fly these beautiful planes too......

Hey Ahmed Ahsen, these are for sure excellent shots with awesome scenery like the planes being visible in some shots, but I have a question in my mind that I think should ask you.

No offense to you and with your work and I seriously appreciate work like this but these are PIA’s A310s (AP-BGP & AP-BGS) and here the engines these airbuses have are not the one in actual these aircrafts have.

Apart from the virtual world the engine exhaust cone in leased airbuses (in PIA) is covered but here you can see the cones which in actual can be seen in BEU/BEQ/BDZ/BEB/BEG.

no need for apology, you made a fair point, and spotted an error I overlooked.
actually, the shots were taken during the first testing of these planes, I did notice the engines myself.
I did put on the engine stickers as they really have, but didnt see anything different about the exhaust cones.
could you elaborate?

This is what I am talking about,
PIA Airbus A310-324/ET (AP-BGR)
Image

PIA Airbus A310-310 (AP-BEU)
Image

Now see the two different shapes of back of the engines, on one of the engine the exaust cone is visible while the other one’s is not.

PIA’s leased airbuses have engine type similar to photo one I posted of BGR while your virtually designed photos of 310s show the engine shape same like in photo two I posted (BEU).

Hope this clears you what my point was.

The difference you see is because PIA's own six Airbus A310s (AP-BDZ, -BEB, -BEC, -BEG, -BEQ & -BEU) are powered by General Electric CF6-80C2A7 turbofan engines.

The six Airbus A310s (AP-BGN, -BGO, -BGP, -BGQ, -BGR & -BGS) leased from Airbus Asset Management are powered by Pratt & Whitney PW4000-94 turbofan engines.

Exhaust cone is visible in General Electric CF6-80C2A7 engine.
