I don't think so. I think it was dust blown up by the engine as the aircraft rotated. But to me there is now no doubt that the flaps were not set to 'take off' position. The aircraft stalled about 12 seconds after take off.

Thanks for that update. That does make much more sense

That is what this Flight Tracker image seems to show. I would be astonished if that were the case. What on Earth were the ATC guys thinking of, releasing the flight for take off from that position?

That was my immediate first thought. That aircraft has stalled and an incorrect flap setting can cause that to happen.

Is this public enough for you? https://people.com/kate-middleton-steps-out-solo-museum-visit-11750694

Strange. I've read all the articles relating to this smuggling issue and this is the 1st time I've seen the word used. I had to Google it to find out what it meant.

I had an account with BAAC until last year, but they upgraded their banking app and I had to re-register. That's when I found out that it would no longer accept my passport number. Sorry buddy, Thai ID only grrr! They do not have a web based on line system so I dumped the account.

Yes you can.

That is not correct! From the very same website that you referred to: 'If you’re applying online, you’ll also need the invitation code from the letter about getting your State Pension. If you have not received an invitation letter but you are within 3 months of reaching your State Pension age, you can request an invitation code'.

The statement isn't sent 'through' the app. It arrives, as I said, as an email attachment in just the same way as it does when requested via the website.

I agree. I think they're great. On pay day my pension arrives in my UK bank account. Within 5 minutes I've shifted it from my UK bank to my Wise account and hence to my Krungsri account. All whilst I'm enjoying my morning coffee out in the gazebo. Easy. I get the statement sent to me attached to an email. I open the email on my laptop and download the statement. Job done.

He's talking about Christmas, 6 months away and seems the 'border war' as you call it is over already. https://www.nationthailand.com/news/general/40050980

Who lends them?

Congratulations! You've discovered that a regular routine of simple exercises is all that you need to keep fit and healthy. So why waste your time and money on gym membership? Just carry on doing what you have proved works for you. I am a fit and healthy 79 year old with no medical issues whose exercise routine is very similar to yours. Good luck and keep up the good work. 😃

I'll take this response as an acknowledgment that you were wrong in your earlier post. That CNN were not lying, they were simply reporting figures from the CSIS report. I have no interest in your 'propaganda' nonsense. The CNN/CSIS does mention Ukraine's losses, but you're just as capable of reading it as I am.

CNN are quoting figures published by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), a think tank in Washington, DC, as are several other news outlets. Other research institutes have come up with similar numbers, including the UK Defence Ministry. https://www.aa.com.tr/en/europe/number-of-russian-soldiers-killed-in-ukraine-war-may-reach-250-000-uk-defense-ministry/3515522

The graphs are NOT nonsense at all, it's your interpretation that's nonsense. It's a predictive graph which has only two data points, now and 2100. There is no 'real world data' for it to be anything other than a straight line graph.

That is actually fairly typical, even before this current campaign started. It's the same when I venture into Sakon Nakhon from where I live. They don a helmet when they think they might get caught. A couple of commuters from our village will carry their helmet until they reach the main road or the city outskirts and then they'll stick it on their heads! And as it's been stated many times, most M/C accidents that result in deaths occur on rural roads, where the speeds are higher resulting more serious consequences. Hey and guess what. I don't recall seeing a policeman in or around our village in 8 years!

Amazing isn't it that some people cannot resist the urge to have a 'Thai bash', even when there is no Thai is involved! Shame on you!

I don't recall ever having to enter my passport number when booking a flight. Why don't you simply try it?

Now I know this is a wind up!

No you're wrong. Read his post again. The O/P said: 'Something like pay x baht a month and the value increases if I live to 70 I get a lump sum. if I die at 55 or 65, my wife gets at least 10 million baht'. That's what I know as an endowment policy and they are a popular savings vehicle here in Thailand. The O/P, as I've already suggested should contact a reputable insurance broker who can assess his needs and make recommendations.

I have nowhere to 'run to' anyway. If WW3 did break out, (which I think is highly unlikely) the UK would undoubtably be involved, so I suspect that 'heading home' would be like running into a burning building. I'd stick it out in my adopted village and, if necessary, go foraging for my food along with the rest of them.
