2) Does PIA plan on using their LR’s for routes where they actually need the extra range?

Yep, non-stop Khi – Toronto for starters.

My thoughts exactly. Now for a few questions:

4) Do the engines on the LR have a bigger diameter than the all the previous models?

I think they are bigger than those of 200 or 200ER, but shared with 300ER.

Has MAN become a PIA hub or something ? 😀

My thoughts exactly. Now for a few questions:

1) Do they have 4 dailies into MAN from Karachi, or where-ever they’re based?
2) Does PIA plan on using their LR’s for routes where they actually need the extra range?
3) Is PIA the launch customer for the -LR?
4) Do the engines on the LR have a bigger diameter than the all the previous models?

Thanks, chaps. 😀

The B777-240LR wears a small Pakistani flag just behind the rear door, unlike the B777-240ERs and the B747s. (Check out the picture of the two PIA B747s.) 🙂

I will give you all a clue it is near the Registration? maybe a flag

It must be me as I still can’t notice a difference…and I even wear glasses! 😮

Great shots as ever Lance!

Btw, I maybe coming up on the 21st March as I have arranged a tour and presentation of the airport. Time permitting, will anyone be around to meet up, it will finally be good to put some names to faces…lol.
