This livery
was unveiled with the induction of 747-300s in 1999. In this livery
all-white fuselage was combined with enlarged green Pakistan titles
and light green PIA initials in stylized Urdu script on forward
fuselage. White PIA initials highlighted an all green tailfin
which had a white leading edge. This livery design was applied on a very
limited number of PIA aircraft. Only few months later this livery design
was dis-continued and most of the aircraft painted in this livery were
re-painted in 1990s livery. Boeing 747-300s continued sporting this
livery design.
This livery
was introduced on some of the aircraft with traditional Pakistani floral
patterns, known as 'Pashmina' and 'Kashikari', painted in
light green color over a dark green background of tail fin with white PIA
initials, however, this floral patterns fin livery was replaced by
the standard PIA fin livery a few months later. Some 747-300s were also
seen with small Pakistan titles when this livery was first
introduced in 1999.
