PIA A310 radome should also appear black like Air France A300.

Re: PIA's A310 to go to Leipzig
According to DAWN News channel, a parliamentary committee meeting today expressed unhappiness over the usage of PIA aircraft i.e. AP-BEQ in shooting of a movie about Operation Entebbe. Members of the committee sought action against individuals involved in it.
PIA officials told the committee that the airline earned 210,000 euros by renting out the Airbus A310.

Re: PIA's A310 to go to Leipzig
ISLAMABAD: Senate’s special committee on PIA sought a detailed report along with all documents containing approvals and correspondence of the tender process of the PIA’s obsolete A310 aircraft.
It also sought details as to who approved sending the aircraft on rent to Malta for exhibition and permitting its use in a film shoot which might have political and religious implications.

There was a news report on Geo TV also, highlighting isleali connection in this episode and use of Pakistani aircraft to depict Palestinian freedom fighters as terrorists.
