BHX
CVTDog
Sorry for the confusion, I was referring to the general restriction imposed by the EU due maintenance standards on the 74M, 743 & 310.
There is no other restriction in force other than the usual restricted payload one for the 747 at BHX. PIA in fact started with the 747 but of
course it only went to Copenhagen as first port of call. I am not sure of all the technical issues surrounding the 747 at BHX but as far as I know PIA have never flown them direct or have or had any intention to do so.
Also the change to the 777 is not imposed so I am told and will remain
after the EU ban is lifted on the 310 if the quote in one paper (today) is correct.
The intention is three a week to start, four in October and 5 a week by Jan 08 but the timetable does not show all of this as yet.
