Curatorial Abstract

Bold stabiliser red and falcon motifs demand crisp tampo registration on diecast metal.

Fly Jinnah's high-contrast crimson reads differently on metal than on paper proofs. Too thin and the colour looks washed; too heavy and edges bleed.

We run colour chips under the same 5000K lamps used for final inspection at the Islamabad atelier.

Collectors often choose this livery as a first modern Pakistani narrowbody beside a classic PIA green cheatline.
