It's unbelievable what's happened to our national carrier.. this was 20 years ago I went with my young family in 1995 1st time and it was beautiful experience I am seeing this and crying 😭 what the looters have done to pia and our country...
What a throwback, these were the pride of PIA back then. Hope PIA can get their issues sorted and get back to the UK soon!
What’s going on? Why can’t PIA get back to the UK???
@@deliciouskebab4646 Europe and UK along with USA banned PIA last year due to the pilot license scandal. They’ve gotten it sorted out already so they’re working to resume Europe and UK flight.
@@ASAviation OMG?! Never knew! But then again, to be brutally honest as much as I used to love and admire PIA as it is a Pakistani airline, they have built themselves a very bad reputation over the years. From getting rid of the good planes aeroplanes in their fleet, to their flight attendants and other members of staff providing really bad customer service, I really don’t want to fly with them again. The only advantage they used to have was the fact that they do direct flights to Pakistan from the UK. However in 2021, Virgin Airlines also known as Vigin Atlantic, now do direct flights to Pakistan, so I don’t really see PIA lasting long now. The only way they can do better is by giving good customer service and bring in a new fleet as well as sorting other things out, such as routes, consistency of flights, food, etc.
@@deliciouskebab4646 yeah it’s a shame to see that the could not keep up to the worlds standards they had big potential but messed it up
@@ASAviation congratulations, it's solved now😃
Dispatched these old girls from MAN many times. Doesn't she look shiney.. could almost be new looking at her departing! What a gorgeous evening sky. Can smell the warm Jet A1 just watching that amazing takeoff 👏
Fantastic, rotation began in the last 900m of the TORA!
Throughout the years, the Boeing 747 has been the world's famous four-engine wide-body aircraft serving most of its civilian (usually freighter and passenger variants), some military & VIP operators worldwide, carrying cargo, people with both the layover, non-stop and even domestic flights, because of its high performance.
The front shot of the plane is absolutely stunning and the take off is excellent 😍
Love the 1970s lens flare from the landing lights, looks very fitting 😄
Magnificent PIA beautifully filmed 👏👏
Amazing Footage! The 747-300s are really rare to capture.
Thanks!
A roaring giant flown to the skies an excellent take off and beautiful quality video
First flown with the Boeing test registration N6018N, this aircraft was delivered to Cathay Pacific Airways as VR-HOL in Feb-87. It was re-registered B-HOL in Jul-97 when Hong Kong became an autonomous region of China. The aircraft was sold to PIA Pakistan International Airlines as AP-BFX in May-99. It was withdrawn from use and stored at Sialkot, Pakistan in Feb-08. The aircraft was later moved to Karachi, Pakistan and broken up there in Feb/Mar-11.
sad to hear its been broken up...
I loved personally those provincial tails worn by PIA glory ending days. We can still have those back adding one more tail for province gilgit baltistan 💙
2 years before i have born this is just amazing saw finnair old livery back there too.
good old days when 747s were functional in PIA
Beautiful plane and beautiful livery
747, the loveliest bird to ever fly
Moral Of The Story, If you make someone else successful, you will be unsuccessful, When PIA made Emirates Airlines by giving it 2 airplanes, now see where is emirates and PIA, I am not alone blaming the descision, the main reason is was corrupt leaders. My uncle had the second highest rank in PIA airline, he was against curroption, but the president of PIA Ejaz Haroon kicked him out of PIA.
We pay for whole runway, we use the whole runway!
Fantastic video mate, all the best for new year 👍
same to you mate, all the best for 2022 🙂

Great video, Simon!
Very nice Very beautiful takeoff PIA.
This is such a wonderful piece of film Simon.
I know PIA traditionally allowed huge baggage allowances, but my my, this bird was really heavy wasn’t she!! I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an aircraft go that long at Manchester before.
Just checked the video description to see that it was 2004.
So nice to see the Thomas Cook 757 as well 👌
Enjoyed hearing the accompanying ATC as well.
I commanded the inaugural PIA 747-200 flight to Manchester. Being born and brought up in UK , I could reply in a (put on) Mancunian accent to the the "Welcome to Manchester" from the Tower. Must have shocked them.
beautiful !!
So many awesome planes are disappearing sadly!
I think PIA were the only ones that would climb to 75% power before letting the brakes off and the feeling inside the cabin was crazy. Like a sling shot and ulif you looked down the isle u could see it lifted from the front as soon as the brakes would be about to release
Yeah cause super heavy loads. Desi don't carry just a carry-on. If 2 bags are allowed with 50 each, they will take 2 bags with 55 each. You know, just in case.
@@radiohead2206 i know but what a feeling it was. They did the same on the 777’s aswell. BA also have super heavy loads but they have boring rolling take off’s.
this is cool 😎 👌 👍
PIA zinda baad 🌹🌹 Pakistan Zinda baad 🌹💐
Ah what a beautiful plane
Nicely filmed.....
PIA, was one of the world's finest airlines in the world, but the crooks have destroyed such a brilliant asset our beloved country Pakistan 🇵🇰, landing takeoff, finest and safest , excellent pilots skills ❤❤
I miss thomas cook
It was from the 757
Excellent!!! Can we put hope on a new video (with ATC) from you?
yes you can! Happy new year!
@@SimonLoweAviation excellent, been following you since fl350!!!! Can’t wait!!!!
Nostalgia 😢
Great people's with fly us❤❤❤❤
king aircraft 747
amazing
Lion PIA
PIA must add A380s in its fleet.
they don't have that much money and A380 requires a lot of maintenance which we know none of there planes unfortunately get. The potential this airline has it hurts me to see that a record breaking airline is like this now.
This is from Last year?
No. A long time ago!
1/81 built
Pakistan International Airlines would have been one of the best airlines in the world but unfortunately, the greed of the Pakistan government and Pakistan's management of the Airline brought it down and now they are banned. On 30 June 2020, EASA suspended Pakistan International Airlines' authorization to operate with the EU member states for 6 months to Europe after the crash of flight PK8303 and the subsequent PIA Pilot License scandal. In late 2020 and early 2021, the ban was extended by another three months and later indefinitely.
pia copied british airways
how?
