Another Boeing 737-200ADV to join Shaheen Air

Post by Abbas Ali »

I got following info from aerotransport.org

Boeing 737-201 (ex-N235US) flew Tucson to Wick (EGPC) and onward to Karachi March 10-13, 2007, reportedly going to Shaheen.

This Boeing 737-200ADV (c/n 22275, l/n 687) was built in 1980. Shaheen Air at the moment has four Boeing 737-200ADVs in its fleet.

On the Net: Shaheen Air International

Here's recent photo of Boeing 737-201 (N235US)
