The services of PIA are under question ever since its plane crashed last month killing 97 people on board. A provisional report claimed that as many as 150 out of a total 400 flag carrier pilots held fake flying licenses.

Since 1965, PIA has suffered 10 major crashes and several minor incidents. Inquiries have been held but they do not seem to have led to any improvements.
