  1. We are visiting Sydney for two weeks in September and will need two SIM cards and provider mainly for calls not data, are their any recommendations as it’s a few years since last trip. Thanks
  2. Regarding the comment in the last paragraph firstly it had nothing to do with the landing gear but the reverse thrust activating during flight. If you care to read the report of the investigation into the accident Lauda had followed all the recommendations from Boeing who had never encountered the problems leading up to the accident. From memory no blame was attributed to the crew or airline.
  3. Maybe one day you will find one who suits your needs
  4. Tomorrow I will give the person I am trying to help a verbal thrashing as they are the culprit
  5. Thanks will try harder!!!!!
  6. Ask him about the Air NZ aircraft that crashed in Antarctica. It's like people saying Qantas is the safest airline but they have been lucky with their share of near misses Read the report into the 1999 incident when the Qantas 747 overshot the runway in Bangkok ripped off the front landing gear and at least one engine. Was declared as a write off Qantas paid for the repair to avoid it being shown as a loss. Yes and I worked for Qantas as an engineer Happy to fly most Asia airlines apart from Garuda Air India.
  7. Thanks for the information much appreciated
  8. Thanks will pass on
  9. Thanks will pass on
  10. Sorry I thought "my title was required"
  11. I never seen to get into the correct forum so apologise in advance. I have a Thai friend with what I call a record player which isn't working I believe a German brand Does anyone know of a repair shop in Chiang Mai or failing that Bangkok Thanks
  12. I will look at the video but I am forming the conclusion that it's either leave them as they are or remove them which is a huge job about 80+sq metres plus take out the furniture etc I was wondering if just removing the tiles without the underlying cement which attaches them would lessen the mess.
  13. How do you think pilots with other airlines gain their experience it's through flying? Anyway the aircraft are usually on auto after takeoff
  14. Thanks for the response I think it will go onto the back burner if it does get done it will have to be with all the tiles removed. The only reason I raised the issue is that they are high gloss, in hindsight should have used something else all the bedrooms are parquetry.
  15. Thanks
  16. Thanks
  17. Thanks for the information
  18. Yes I have thought of that but we have two bathrooms and a toilet that are lower. I am just trying to get ideas at this stage it might end up not happening if it's not practical.
  19. The reason for not wanting to remove them is the work involved and the mess they would need to be jack hammered as they are set in cementcement and it's a big area I have some of those tiles that look like timber and they are pretty good not slippery. I am just looking at alternatives as it is a main area it needs to be hard wearing but will not use material that's cheap and no good.
  20. Hi I have a room of about 85 sq m surfaced with 60cm high gloss ceramic tiles, the tiles are all secure and the house about 13 years old. I would like to resurface if possible with a timber look material but not ceramic tiles and preferably “ non slip” I would appreciate any suggestions particularly something that will adhere for long term. I obviously don’t want to remove the existing tiles Thanks Stephen
  21. For the record it’s “ being hoisted ‘on’ your own petard” I only said that you could be sued in Australia and other countries if the statement isn’t true . I never said that in Thailand you could only be sued if the statement was untrue. As a retired lawyer from Australia I am well aware of the law relating to defamation in Thailand and Australia where in relation to the latter, I took action against several individuals who foolishly posted defamatory comments on the internet.
  22. It's not only Thailand you can be sued for defamation in other countries including Australia if you post comments that are found to be baseless. Criminal defamation is over the top but that's the law here.
  23. Thanks for the response
  24. I use one but these are the rules they apply in Chiang Mai
  25. Unfortunately as are many of the rules or the way they are interpretation especially in Chiang Mai
