Captain Badar Akbar (Emirates 777)

Post by Amaad Lone »

Last night I met an Emirates 777 captain, who had left PIA 17 years ago and joined Emirates as a first officer on the A300-600s.

Captain Badar went to Emirates as a part of the wetleased A300/737 package in 1985, and never came back, and joined Emirates on the A300-600s.

He is now a Line Check Captain on the 777 fleet, and told me that atleast 15 ex PIA pilots now work with Emirates.

During our conversation I mentioned this website to him, and to my surprise he had heard of History Of PIA, and told me that he was very impressed by it.

It was an interesting evening.
