New PIA livery coming soon!

According to this thread on the Pakistani aviation website, PIA will be introducing a new livery soon; the new fleet will first be introduced on a 743, now in for maintenance at KHI. The new livery can be seen on this thread:

The green and gold stripe should look quite good.

Sadly, this means the end of the regional tail colour schemes, but at least it'll be an improvement on the rather cheap illustration of the flag on the tail of some of the current 777 fleet. It's a pity that we'll miss the sight of those wonderful colourful regional tails, though:

I think the regional tails are very nice but the later scheme just seemed to lack colour/thought
The old green tail used to stand out a mile but with very little colour on the present scheme just looks unfinished
If this is the new scheme on the drawing it is a vast improvement and is more in line
with 21st century

That does look nice. Isn't that a B748 with the new livery titles ? Is PIA buying any B748 ?
