Re: PIA Airbus A310-300 Fleet Status
can anyone tell how much life remains in these PIA A310's.
How much longer can they last without major overhaul/replacements ??

AP-BDZ - Red circled area in this photo, is a hole (about 3"-4") probably hit by bullets.

I guess some of its parts will go to BEU and PIA will bring it back in service.

As i remember previously AP-BGQ was not seen active but right now it is operating PK-756 from Riyadh to Peshawar.
Jumbo is just not a plane, it's a legacy !

Re: PIA Airbus A310-300 Fleet Status
It seems PIA may phase out its A310s soon. No good signs for AP-BEG.

^ PIA Airbus A310-300s probably to be replaced by Airbus A330-200s?
It will allow A330 and A320 in PIA fleet to be operated by a common pool of pilots.

Re: PIA Airbus A310-300 Fleet Status
^ I remember news reports claimed that bids submitted for the sale of three Airbus A310-300s (AP-BEB, AP-BGQ & AP-BGS) were rejected because those bids did not meet minimum target set by PIA?
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=22658
I was expecting a new bidding invitation by PIA for the sale of those three A310s.
