Apart from their aircraft; they are already running and managing PIA from top to bottom then PAF Inc. can manage this as well.

PIA needs to fix these issues. Sending Aircraft to PAF or other facilities are not the solution for long run.

Seems proper quality control/standard procedures were not followed in the case of livery painting on AP-BMH tail. Or maybe due to lack of funds the airline does not have proper material and equipment for good quality livery paint work.

PIA aircraft including Boeing 747s apparently painted at airline's facilities at Karachi Airport in 80s, 90s and recent years did not show such flaws in livery paint work.

When PIA received the six A310-324s from Airbus Asset Management in 2004, those planes were painted in a hanger in Belgium.

Even Shaheen got its aircraft painted in Europe and Turkey. Cant be that expensive.

PIA has become a third rate airline and does not care about its image. Its become a bus service and they do not care what the planes look like.

really sad the way PIA treats its aircraft.

Rather then touching up the green paint the company should have repainted the entire tail again.

You can see the darker patches of green, looks tacky and makes PIA look like a third rate airline.

PIA aircraft have never looked this bad before.

Interior in bad shape exterior in bad shape do the airline managers not know that the airline is the image of the country.

this pic shows the neglect that pia gives to its aircraft and this lack of professionalism is present in all aircraft owned by pia, all the 777s of pia have outdated and ife that are not working not to mention dirty windows torn seats etc i dont know when pia will give attention to these areas.
