Do we know the hours and cycles on this lost airframe? Or its maintenance history?

There are plenty of B737-200 and -300s still in service in Arctic Canada, Latin America and Indonesia, as well as elsewhere.

it was flying back AFTER maintenance checks done in SHARJAH, UAE.

I would assume maintenance checks in UAE to be good, unless things have changed recently. Now obviously it will be checked what was done in Sharjah and what happened

Black boxes are necessary to investigate.......

That shouldn't matter. The duty cycles and maintenance, as well as training of the crew, are far more important IMO.

I was making an observation.

I was making an observation.

When you buy a second hand car you always check how many owners did the car had

I was making an observation.

Of course, an observation that is not relevant to the safety of the flight - in my opinion only, of course.

This is a discussion forum... We are not the ATSB or the FAA for that matter, we are having a discussion. What is not relevant is me talking about the samosa I am about to have with my Tea right now, me talking about the concerned aircraft's operator history does go with the flow of the argument.

Now lets pack up our bags and get back on topic shall we good sir.

Did they find any survivors?

Apparently, Pakistan CAA have sealed K2 Airway's Office at Jinnah Terminal on the 3rd Floor.

They're gonna be going through all of their records.

On a side note..., I haven't heard a peep out of Boeing, NTSB or even UAE's GCAA where the flight originated from - after a F#*KING MAINTAINANCE.

FWIW, you might recall when one of Kalitta's birds came out of maintenance in Ypsilanti and during the test flight over Lake Michigan, one of the engines fell off.

Did they find any survivors?

Most likely not; not based on the rate of descent and likely angle of impact at the time of the crash.
