As RenFrew suggested, aircraft availability is probably the problem. They were using Turkish registered aircraft and under Pakistan rules, these had to be transferred to the Pakistan register within 90 days of start of operation. They haven’t, so the service stops and presumably they have not been able to obtain other aircraft with the summer season looming.

You must have spent twice as long on the photo search as I did and I think you have a possible career as a fiction writer, maybe!!:D

Hope the truth will out.:)

Steve Rowell will love this one!

Someone is telling porkies if the hijacker (reformed?) says he works at the ‘airport’ and BA say he doesn’t. If he works off the airport, he shouldn’t need a security pass to be on the airport and WHY was he on the airport anyway, too many unanswered questions here.

Was it three or four Comper Swifts lined up at an air display or PFA Rally about 20 years ago?
Surely a unique post-war occasion.

Not so unique, I remember a line up of Swifts at Blackbushe for an air display probably late sixties early seventies.

The seller would usually have to add a sweetner to the deal!:D
