Former PIA Twin Otter (AP-BCH) Moving To Maldives

[Abbas Ali]

Former PIA de Havilland Canada DHC-6-300 Twin Otter (AP-BCH), construction number 768, is returning to South Asia. The aircraft is going Maldives to operate flights for Maldivian Air Taxi (www.maldivianairtaxi.com).

AP-BCH was sold by PIA in 2006.

Following photo shows DHC-6-300 Twin Otter (c/n 768) in Air Sea Lines livery with Canadian registration C-GDQM leaving Luqa-Malta International Airport for flight to Egypt which apparently is one of refueling stops for this little bird on its flight to Maldives.

Let's see whether homebase of this Twin Otter's former operator PIA i.e. Karachi Airport is among refueling stops for its flight to Maldives or not.
