Apparently, the ones flying here have been bought off-lease.

Which site are you trying to access? It may be geo-blocked for Thailand. You could try a VPN to the US or Europe.

That would be the Tu-70 passenger conversion of the Tu-4, according to the Wiki it never actually went into production. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-70

It wouldn't be the first time Russia has copied a Boeing, ok it's not a jet but ... : - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-4

I can see parts and service of course, but does re-fuelling a Russian Boeing using fuel made outside the US really break the sanctions?

I've got a 50B memory-stick that says it's 2TB

It's ok, the jets are Choeing (copy Boeing) like the Chonda engine on my genset

Those single-wheel vans can get decidedly "lively" on the back with a load in. I drove a double-wheel Transit in the UK, stable as a rock, then I tried a Hiace in HK, scary with a full load. I'm really not surprised they fall off the road here with monotonous regularity considering the way they are driven ????

Yeah, the sweet-spot for panels was the back-end of 2021. I got 12 x 340W panels from Global House in September 2021 for 2,890 Baht a pop. I should have bought more then; similar panels are around 3,600 Baht now ???? As always, hindsight is 20-20.

That is my understanding, yes.

But will they be posting on social media?

Glad the kids are all OK. I'm not an accident investigator, nor do I play one on TV AN. But: - Road looks rather dry, unprovoked skidding seems a remote possibility

The Astro-a-nut-in perhaps? The original appearance of Astronut on Deputy Dawg.

The oil-drum method works rather well ???? OK, the "oil" drum we got from our local drum-shop used to contain pineapple juice but it still did the job ????

I'm boring old O+ and now too old anyway ???? But Thailand needs to follow the Aussie example on the CJD issue. https://theconversation.com/people-who-lived-in-the-uk-in-the-mad-cow-disease-years-may-now-be-able-to-give-blood-the-risk-of-vcjd-is-tiny-183521

We have: - The BMS Fuses at the battery Individual per-battery MCBs in a box with the bus-bars A separate (larger) MCB in the cable feeding the inverter from the bus-bars. If you have multiple inverters use one MCB per inverter (allows you to isolate one unit if it goes faulty).

The real thing!

And of the PEA of course Our only mention of "solar" to PEA was when we first thought about it. The FiT was pitiful at the time (it's not much better now) and the local PEA Boss Man said we could "absolutely not spin the meter backwards". On our way out he also said (very quietly) "don't let the meter reader see it going backwards", so we are doing just that

I find that using a Phillips driver on those dual "slotted+Phillips" heads it cams-out before reaching what I think is decently tight so I have to get the slotted driver on the job too. Your Mileage (and torque) May Vary ????

Hate to admit that I don't have one, a decent one is not a cheap item ???? Tighten to somewhere between "wuss" and "gorilla" and you'll be fine ????

Yeah, that's why I suggested a "better" photo for the snakes group. He would get a lot of flak from the snake-charmers.

There's also "Thai Biodiversity Survey & Species ID" for other creatures that are not snakes (they do snakes too).

Well, bu99er me sideways with a toilet brush! He comes 12 days before the end of the month, why did I never spot that? It is worth noting that muggins here was well into his 20s before it dawned where the inventor Professor Pat.Pending (Whacky Races) got his name My records don't go back far enough to see if he comes on the 17th of February in a leap year. @BritManToo Our man seems to operate on a Sunday too, although last year only had one Sunday billing date (he came).

I'd never associated his visit day with the month length, must check the dates he came last year. Sometimes the obvious flies over at 38,000 feet and climbing
