The title of this thread is regarding PIA leasing aircraft and it says nothing about making jabs at each other, therefore please avoid doing so. It is all in bad taste.

Going back to topic now, so we now have 1 AT72 and how many 320s awaiting delivery? And do we have any more info on the 3 , 777s that Pk is supposedly getting by the end of the year? Dare I say they are desperately needed.

^ Thanks for the info.

Why was AP-BLW painted incomplete?

AP-BLS appears to have received complete livery.
