PIA logo in urdu near cockpit windows and on engines is golden. I guess on other aircrafts, they are of green colour.
Btw i'm already in love with this livery. Even though it's incomplete but it's looking gorgeous :love:

I also favor this livery with the white fuselage. It's simple, attractive and low cost. Aircraft still looks complete. Only engine logo needs to be enlarged & centered horizontally & vertically.

Or the engine can be coloured green or golden with enlarged white PIA logo.
