Had a recent correspondence with a chap who works for PIA at MAN, and the word from the engineers there is the 777 will be introduced at GLA and FRA in the not too distant future(poss waiting on more a/c delivered??) Hopefully not too soon, want some nice summer shots of those A310’s 🙂

Back to the topic, no PIA 777’s or 744’s for GLA not unlike MAN? Also, does PIA not plan on painting their A310’s in the new livery?

PIA have indicated that if the PAx figures for Glasgow are sufficient that they would introduce the 777 on this route As for the 747, I know that when they started the service the Intial flight Plans were for 310,777 and 747 It would be more likely any upgraded from the 310 to the 777 than the 747

PIA have B747-200s and -300s only I believe. I know all the 777s are in the new scheme, possible that there’s still a 747 in the old colours…?

Correction, it appears most of them are in the new scheme now 🙂

Thanks for the info. Are there any 777’s or 744’s still in the old scheme?

Cheers Guys,
When I arrived the Sun was very low and behind some Clouds, so it was very dark , Two aircraft landed in front of it and Three departed , so I was kind of concerned that the light would have gone by the time it arrived ,
The sun was just clippingthe hills we i noticed it on appproach, so up went the iso , Ithink the first few shots were about 100 @5.6, and as it came down the runway the light got a bit better, thank god for RAW

You know I thought about nipping along for a picture, but typically assumed it wouldn’t turn up til 1800 or something like that.

Great to see her at last, and great that the nights are getting longer again (just). 😀

Very nice Kev, nice seeing the A310s as there not the most commen aircraft at UK airports. Must be one of the few/the last one left in the old c/s.
