The story behind the livery
By 1975, Philippine Airlines had refined its visual identity considerably from the earlier 1968 scheme, adopting a more modern colour palette that reflected the airline's growing confidence and the broader changes sweeping Asian aviation in the mid-1970s. The Hawker Siddeley HS-748 continued to serve PAL's extensive domestic network, connecting the Philippine islands with a reliability that had made it indispensable to the airline's provincial operations. The 1975 livery sits at the heart of PAL's HS-748 story — more evolved than the original scheme, yet distinctly different again from the final 1992 variant — making it an essential piece for anyone building a complete collection of PAL turboprop history.
This is the second of three Philippine Airlines HS-748 liveries in the Memodec collection, bridging the gap between the classic 1968 scheme and the final 1992 variant.
