Manchester Airport this Sunday

Post by Hasson2k2 »

Hey Salaam guys,

I will be on PK 796 from ORD-KHI this Saturday and Sunday Inshallah and I was wondering if there are any chances of seeing a PIA 747 there. Our flight is shceduled to land in Manchester just after 7am in the morning. After reading the thread regaurding atleast one 747 passing European Union Inspection--do we know when the others will go up for inspection or is that still up in the air??

Also does anyone live in Manchester?? How is the weather there?? Im sure its winter time but is it snowing there?? Last time we got to Manchester early in the morning from Chicago and it was snowing and it looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! So I just wanna have an idea of what to expect...the weather is just for my personal amusement.

Thanks guys in advace!!!

Also a while back i remember reading a thread about PIA getting new IFE systems for the 777--but i cant seem to find that thread now. Is this true and have these IFE's been installed?? Or am i just misunderstanding the thread??

Sorry, but you're not going to see any B747 at MAN this weekend !!
Even if it was due, it's schedule used to be a little later during the day, say around lunch time - that's if it was running on time :roll: !!

Weather forecast shows - clear skies, bright sunshine around 9 degrees -
no snow yet I'm afraid 8) :( !!

Regarding the updated IFE on B777 - haven't heard anything yet !!

Perhaps PIA's new Boeing 777-340ER (AP-BHV) is equipped with new IFE system.
