would be great to lease those for hajj flights. This way PIA's own planes could continue regular services rather than be held for hajj.

Ive seen many modified photos of A380s in PIA livery. But thanks anyway for sharing.

Excellent work by the creator of photochop, if only he could've used the ''Chroma-script'' fonts for (Mountain Paradise) text on the plane which PIA actually uses, than it would've looked 99% real! 8) Agree with you nadir! Apart from it, I personally wish to see A380 super jumbo in PIA colours! PIA could wet-lease 2 or 3 A380s from Airbus in near future :roll:

Given that EK is getting 55+ of the big beasts, maybe PK could lease it from them for Hajj flights..but that is about the only flights it could do well with an A380.

Am i the only one to notice the fin on that 380 is of B777!!

How rude.... :roll:

Good try though and yes i can see PIA only utilizing at least 2x A380s during Hajj season but i rather see them flying B747s over this crap at any day....

Dose anyone know that Qantas's whole fleet of these mega Jumbo is presently grounded due to FUNGUS grown in the fuel tanks!!! "Tanks being contaminated with water!!"

Nice editing, love to see this aircraft in PIA livery. Did emirates ask CAA to upgrade OPKC to use A380 ?

ConnieMan, I'm afraid you could be wrong, I cannot figure out any difference. Below are the two photos for comparison.

Guys look closely its the resized B777 tail on the A380...the guy has done an excellent job on it...the singapore tail has smooth curves from the front....can anybody request for flag tail livery?

ahmed OPKC is not going to enhance its runway to make it A380 compatible, unless until PIA plans to lease couple of these super jumbos for Hajj flights... :roll:

Adnan look a at the angles of sweep back and then top of the fin, Airbus dosen't have high sewpt back angles and dosen't have sharp angles either at the top of the fin Vs all Boeing have higher swept back angles starting at the root of the fin to the tip and the straight cut angle at the tip towards trailing edge with another sharp square angle down to the root....

As Salman stated it's a enlarged B777 tail cut and pasted on this A380, if you are not careful, you could easily miss on it or if you are not fully familiar with differences between B Vs A physically then you would too ...

ConnieMan and Salman, you both are absolutely right. I didn't notice that thing at all, even comparing the two photos I posted I couldn't recognize the difference in the tail structure. The top left corner of the actual A380 is no doubt with smooth cut and not as sharp as a B777's tail is.

Thanks for correcting me out!
