    If they are splitting hairs then it's obviously a deliberate act to hide their real reason for stopping the income letters.

     

    Remember, by their own admission, the decision wasn't made by the British Embassy in Bangkok but by the FCO (British government department responsible for embassies abroad) as a result of their audit of the BE in Bangkok.

    I have had 2 out of 3 responses from the FCO regarding my requests under the FOI act.  Although I orignally said that I would publish the replies, given the current regime within TV for publishing some factual items I felt it more appropriate to publish those replies on another forum which I shall not name, but a Google search should find them for those interested.  Needless to say the actual data provided by the FCO, throws much , if not all of the TV conjecture as to the cessation of income letters from the BE,  into the  bin. It is obvious as to why the BE took such actions and the information/requests highlighted the major issues which triggered such actions.

    The very small men in charge are exceptionally thin skinned, have low self esteem, little self love, and like someone on the other side of the larger pond, hate being criticized, and want everyone to love them. Arresting this group would show them to be the despotic creeps that they really are.

    But would it be the fuse sufficient to wake the general population up ?

    Traveling over Thailand and you will see Large MG show rooms being built everywhere, the Chinese owners are pouring a lot of money into the Thai market to promote and sell these cars. Personally I would not buy one. Prefer Japanese cars 

    Not to diversify to much from the MG3 thread but as it is a Chinese manufactured car are you also aware that Aston Martin partnered by a Chinese company will manufacture EV cars in China in the future ?

    relax and be kind, so far I have being accused of giberisnes and ignorance. 

    auto correct problem I did not notice . it should say drag coefficient . 

     

     

    OK I will be kind.  Now just relax, have another beer and enjoy the show.  Don't take part until you feel better and fully refreshed sufficiently  to face reality again. Now have a good night, best regards.

    to bring this back in topic.

     the MG zs has a drug collision of .32 and the MU-x .39 an insignificant difference given proportions.

     

    Gibberish rubbish.  What is a drug collision ?   2 asprins having an accident ?  ???????????? 

     

    Think you should give up trying to justify anything in this post.  If you really meant a drag coefficient then  the difference between 0.32 and 0.39 is huge when it comes to automobile aerodynamics .

     

    Please stop the futility by bringing trucks or their derivatives into a car thread. This thread is specifically the MG 3 which  you now consider is also the MG ZS (above), do you actually know the difference ? !!!!

    This whole thing started with true and tried vs new and unproven, hence my comment on the MU-x, everything else came after attacks on true and tried vs new and unproven argument. Now because you cant attack my argument you attack me, 

    And you call me ignorant pal ?

    And you consider that your statement " The MGB zs with the 1.5 can barely pull itself" is based on fact and your knowledge of the said vehicle ? clearly you know nothing about the vehicle at all.  For your education the meaning of ignorant is "lacking knowledge, information, or awareness about something in particular.".

    The MGB zs with the 1.5 can barely pull itself, but it looks good doing it . it gets 46 mpg petrol

    Yet the MUX drives 7, is 4x4 and can tow 3000 kg which is two MGB zs's and do all of it at 30 mpg diesel which is cheaper than petrol  so cost per mile close.

    But I will concede the ZS does make a pretty paperweight.

    I guess with ignorant comments such as that indicates the reasons you see nothing wrong in a tarted up truck. But I can see nothing wrong in farmers wanting commercial vehicles which after all is exactly what they are designed to do.

     

    And this thread is about the MG3 , not farm vehicles.  Start your own thread if you wish to extoll the virtues of trucks or truck based vehicles entering towing competitions !

    Think you replied to the wrong post

    Nope.

    In that case then your reply was nonsensical but perhaps you are armchair expert pals whom praise each on your perceived expert knowledge  ????   But again I will say show some respect for the deceased which is far more important at this time then you two attempting to convince others on this forum of your knowledge in these matters.

    Clearly no need to when there are armchair experts like you who can conclude the cause of the crash without even witnessing it or examining the crash site.  Perhaps you should contact the AAIB to advise them that TVF has the full spectrum of armchair experts and that the next few months of close examination by the AAIB, to determine the actual cause of the accident, may not be needed emoji23.png
     

    He contributed more in just a few words than your paragraph of total drivel

    don't know

    would say some of their prostitution was 1st world

    excellent soapies

    You mean 1st class soapies surely ?  You don't have to be in a 1st world country to have a 1st class soapy. Due to age my memory is fading but I do recall that there is no prostitution here because it is illegal, but the way it is so easy to pay for the pleasure of some ladies time , is similarly 1st class.

    the fact that you rank songs higher than technical information says a lot.

    Well its the only thing it could be because your technical excuse is totally irrelevant to an air disaster.  So yes you do show appalling taste attempting to distort the tone of this thread, and the tragedy involved with snide comments. But hey ho carry on posting in poor taste if it makes you feel better.

    So clearly as a 'coptot pilot given your expertise,  what do think may have happened ?

    It wasn't high enough . You can Google "dead man's curve"

    I think the fact you mention songs when those currently unnamed persons who have perished in this accident is somewhat untasteful.

    different markets get different specs, they are not selling the Euro spec MG in Thailand. The MG3 in the UK gets "twin, side & curtain airbags" while the Thai version only gets "front dual airbag" (sic).

    Within the context of my post, my point was regarding crash testing, ie NCAP tests in Europe.  The number of air bags is irrelevant to the NCAP crash testing requirements .
