Virtual Pakistan International Airlines Inks Deal for Lease of New Aircraft

Published January 18, 2010 | By editor

Virtual Pakistan International Airlines (VPIA) have successfully completed negotiations for the lease of a Boeing 737-900ER. Registration details not available as yet.

The aircraft is currently in Frankfurt undergoing ‘D’ checks and maintenance, before being handed over to VPIA. The previous operator is unknown, though it is strongly rumored to be KLM VA.

The aircraft is rumored to be painted in a special livery with F1 markings in support of the Italian F1 team, Manardi. The Aircraft is expected to be delivered to VPIA within the coming weeks to feature in our F1 Season Schedules.

VPIA Speedex Cargo is also undergoing negotiations to lease another aircraft – inside sources claimed it would be a 767 or 777 freighter, though that seems a little unlikely, as VPIA maintains an extensive fleet of 747 and Airbus A300 freighters.
