Why is Thai Airways having so many problems with turbulence, its not long ago that a similar number of people were injured on another TG flight, from China or Japan as I recall but in the meantime I haven't heard of other airlines having problems with injured people due to turbulence...

This is a lot of incidents involving injuries due to turbulence...

Fair weather pilots trained in Thailand have very little experience with rough weather conditions.

Complete nonsense. Thailand often features widespread areas of violent convective weather, as does most of the destinations Thai fly to in the region. Their network also faces challenges with snow and de-icing in -15 degree winters (Japan,China,Korea,).

Ever heard of Europe? They have weather there. Thai flies there.

"Fair weather pilots" is really only an expression that applies to Australians.

I've found response time to requests getting longer by the month! Wifey "claims" she doesn't like sitting naked out by the pool, prefers to lurk inside playing with her iPhone. (even though our walls are very high, completely private). Was never a problem until I put the zirconium on that lazy little finger.

I got pretty tired of having to shout every time I need a beer or something cooked or whatever so I got a little bell for her birthday, it wasn't bloody cheap either. I used to ring it and she'd come running with a smile!

I've been timing her recently and logging it, and now she's up to several minutes.. I will show her the spreadsheet soon.. she tries to pretend she couldn't hear the bell because of her iPhone games...unbelievable. I totally get why the Thais trade them in after they're 25 or whatever. Thats what all these B.S "move to Thailand" blogs don't warn you about, these type of girlies!

All you commentators all sound like pussy whipped little bunny huggers. I could end your presencs on earth with these, a book, small pencil, elastic band, hand hold or one inch punch. Cars ignition keys are the best, but ice workers wonders too and does not leave a trace.... it melts. Grow up or go back to you little mollycoddled homelands.

Where did you learn all these elite skills, was that when you were in the Special Air Service?

Rationalize and attempt to wiggle your way out of it, but you have generalized how cattle are raised in the US into 4 sentences that make you seem ignorant. Stating something on TV does not make you an expert. In the US there are many different types of cattle, ways of raising those cattle and the quality of those cattle. Too bad you don't take the time to understand.

re drugs and chemicals are the Chinese.

I'm not attempting to wriggle my way out of anything khaopad, I thought I made my point quite clearly. US beef, as in the beef sold in supermarkets, and as served in most restaurants there, is of very poor quality, and contains many chemicals harmful to humans.

When 80% plus of US beef is grown in factory conditions, I think it's fair to generalise.

I do realise there are specialist organic beef farms there, same as any other country. Well, except that many other countries have far more stringent requirements than the USDA Certified Organic label.

I'm completely open to debate on this khaopad, I'm only interested in the facts. Maybe you know more about the topic than I do, I don't know. From what I've read on the matter, food standards are just not something the US is good at. Quite the opposite. Feel free to show me the light though.

Yes. I had a friend from North Dakota who raised had his own ranch. He would bring a few coolers full of fantastic, range fed steaks. Best I had...especially compared to what is available in Asia.

no doubt!! My kind of meal :-)

Wyoming and Montana have the best steaks in the world!!!

hate to break it to you but American beef is probably the lowest quality meat in the developed world. Raised in squalid factories, on a relentless daily cocktail of growth hormones and multiple antibiotics - many of which are banned in the more sophisticated farming countries. Even 'organic' meat in the US has more crap in it than more developed places. I love visiting the US, but certainly wouldn't list the food as a reason to go there :-)

Great first post from manofmystery. First day and he has already shown us a new way to bash the Yanks.

My guess is he has never been in Texas, Wyoming, Montana et al to get some of that good beef.

Expert on McDonald's fine cuisine more likely.

Thanks Chuck :-)

Actually I've travelled extensively in the US, and visit regularly. It's one of my favourite countries.

Don't take my comments personally, plenty of Americans I know won't eat US supermarket meat

either.

The cheapest beef in the world by a long way is in the US, there are reasons for that.

I've seen and smelt first hand what's required to stuff 100,000 head of cattle into a few hundred acres..

American cows don't wander around in fields eating grass, I'll put it that way. 4 companies now control

80%+ of the beef production there, and what they're putting in the meat isn't a secret.
