As for as aviation photos .... you work at prime spot... keep a very small good quality ( 4m pxl ) diggy camera in your pocket ( like mobile phone size ) and you could pick up some wonderful photos at LHR!!

I agree with all of u....great shot man, but "be careful" is the advise for you cz thiis area looks like the one being occupied by our american friends! yeah they sure are our friends cz they've barbwired all there tentage and living area in the most secure locality of our country and won't let anyone get inside and only one pakistani sentry is on duty at the main gate adjuscent to their area, so are'nt they our friends by not troubling us with there security concerns?
Any views :roll: ? hope not 8)

I saw this Reem Air aircraft parked at Islamabad airport on November 29 when I flew from Karachi to Islamabad. There was also a similar aircraft of another airline parked at Islamabad.

Off topic. I flew from KHI to ISL on an Air Universal 747-200 aircraft. Interior was very old and run down and felt like travelling in Pakistan Railways.

KHI - ISB on an air universal 747 a/c? I guess those one were supposed to be used for Hajj operations.

I thought the same that they were only for Hajj operations. May be it had to operate a Hajj flight from ISL.

May be... But next time whenever you travel check the a/c for respective flight and then book the seat. I think these leased a/c are written as 74L (747-leased) while MNG it is written as 73L.

Yep AP-BGL, the leased 737-400 from MNG are classified as 73L and 747-200s from air universal and thai orient as 74L in PIA website.

It is recommended that you check your aircraft from the "Seat avalibilty", rather then searching flights from the schedule, the Seat avalibility are more reliable with respect to what machine is flying on the day.
