Untrue. They never made a serious effort to have him returned. That's just your opinion, you have nothing empirical to back it and suspicion, hearsay or speculation is not empirical evidence.

That's a pedantic point, as usual. No, it is not, it is statement of fact. That you may interpret them as being the same is your issue. There is a big difference between a premeditated murder and an unplanned traffic accident.

As do you. How about she entered the water, experienced difficulties, drowned/died and was washed back onto the beach?

I did NOT say there are fake pilots in Thailand. But they exist in this world. There are instances where the FAA has mentioned about it . Add Subject was foreign pilots FYI On a thread about pilots in Thailand you made no reference to your comment not being a suggestion about fake pilots here.

Are you comparing driving licences with pilots licences? REALLY? Can't you read? Really? My comment was a response to watchcat's comment who made that fatuous comparison.

It also requires the police force to be provided with a budget sufficient to enable it to enforce the laws.

Presidential pardon does not apply. Trump does not have any convictions, anyway.

Trump has not been convicted of anything.

Being a mentally deficient President gives him that power. He could have been prosecuted but they just decided not to and offered his mentally deficient state as an excuse.

Your being a far-left Lib, I'm not surprised that you don't know that there are no pardons, nor the need for any pardons, for Trump.

Why not consider that he has recovered from whatever caused that problem in the past and talks perfectly normally now?

If he is detained Thailand would take that off the table in order to get him back, as they have done on previous occasions.

The laws that didn't allow him to be arrested and returned to Thailand are the laws of other countries, not Thailand's laws and he's not above them.

"...Bilal has none and will be returned". Yes, because the Moroccan is accused of murder, Vorayuth isn't. Their arrests and return is entirely dependent on HK (or wherever they are now) cooperating with Interpol's advisory notice, something that they do not have to do.

That was not a murder, like it or not, it was a traffic accident.

A recent poll should most people on this forum drink drive. So what? Doesn't surprise me, neither does it surprise me that you seem to think that because most people in your meaningless AN-member "poll" do it, that makes intoxicated driving ok.

Assume makes and ASS out of U and ME. Not a Thai bash - a concern over too many graduates getting into the system in a shortish time. Don't think he was assuming anything, he was commenting based on what you posted that read as a Thai-bash and he certainly didn't make an ass of himself. "...a concern over too many graduates getting into the system in a shortish time". Whose concern and who said that there are "too many qualified pilots getting into the system in a shortish time"?

It could mean a crash. Just because they have a DL, does not mean they have the experience. Just watch the traffic on the roads, Could it? Really? You think that Thai airline pilots have the same required training as drivers here? Have there ever been any reports of investigations determining that air crashes were caused by "new" pilots?

What evidence do you have of there being fake pilots in Thailand?

Alright for your Thai pilots to fly in foreign countries though, eh Mr Teerawat! And foreign pilots are permitted to fly into Thailand. aren't they, Mr Austin?

Loads of foreign helicopter pilots flying offshore oil and gas for Chevron and PTTEP. That would be because there is no prohibition of that! Hundreds of foreign plane pilots fly into Thailand all the time.

Well said.

Ridiculous viewpoint.

Statistically, and empirically nothing, it happens worldwide, all the time. "Newby" pilots, as you disparagingly refer to them, are not new pilots, they are fully qualified, trained pilots under the guidance of experienced Captains who all have a vested interest in getting home alive with an intact aircraft.

Surely it makes sense to wear a helmet with so many moronic drunk drivers who mistakenly claim that they are driving safely (whilst being intoxicated) on the road?
