A310 and A340 were unsuccessful airliners. A320 was and continues to be a selling aircraft.

PIA has to be steered completely away from any Ministry of Defence involvement in its running and hiring and this is possible as a private enterprise only. I hate to say this but CAA affairs have to be equally settled.

All these years we all have witnessed tall claims, fake promises & bogus tenders. Has any one really tried to help this airline by any means, even right sizing?
