As these are not reportable incidents for CAAT, information is limited. This appears to be more of a start up check list problem, something not right, rather than the reported engine failure. Looking at flight data, online, the same aircraft was eventually used for the flight.

Sorry funny.5555 I posted earlier information on a planes air conditioning works, engines, APU and ground cooling. The post got positive reactions. But it has now been deleted fully, because I called the old title, which has since been changed, irrelevant.

This aircraft has been with Nok Air, since 2014, and maybe a maintenance issue, nothing to do with the fact it was a Boeing. Do you really believe that only Boeing aircraft have issues?

This is the thread from Monday, which shows CAAT (Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand) asking about this flight.

Without seeing the body, it is impossible determine the extent of the burns, but the post mortem, should reveal some evidence of why only the head is burnt. Decomposition will have been helped by the heat. Many predacious and scavenger animals will have damaged the body, ants, insects, worms, flies, maggots rodents, birds, dogs,etc. There are also many recorded cases, where fire and burning is used to cover evidence, such as blunt force injuries. Burning itself, can cause reactions on the body, with the same characteristics of these types of injuries and will make the diagnostic interpretation, of cause of death, difficult. Hopefully the post mortem provides the answers.

The problem is the fire will continue to smoulder, as the chemicals/combustibles mix under the rubble/roof/earth/foam, will remain hot and when exposed to the air, may ignite again. If any of the waste chemicals have oxidising properties, meaning when heated they give off oxygen, they will still burn even when covered over, thus giving off smoke and when exposed, flames will again be visible. Responders will be involved in the ‘turning over and damping down’ stage, so flare ups can be expected as the site is cleared.

Agencies in Bangkok are now reported to be inspecting around 500,000 utility holes to ensure their safety. The MEA is also, inspecting all of their ‘tube wells’ in Bangkok, Nonthaburi, and Samut Prakarn and are considering introducing the use of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) manhole covers for future projects to prevent theft. MEA's Assistant Governor Satit Pongsathonwiboon said today the UHPC covers have already been successfully deployed in a project on Chaiyaphruek road and that could be expanded. You can now report unsafe utility holes via the Traffy Fondue platform. https://www.traffy.in.th/

One analyst stated. “This is a major and unexpected new disclosure from Boeing. In an internal memo to all staff, Scott Stoker, 787 VP and GM said, several people have been violating company policies by not performing a required test but recording the work as having been completed. The word alleged is missing from my memo and Boeing have not delivered a single jet since April 12 of this year. Boeing, have had to go back and repeat the missing grounding and bonding test on all 787s, thus putting undelivered aircraft out of sequence and stalling all deliveries. Boeing said this problem does not affect any aircraft which is currently in service and they can continue to operate safely.“

Mr. Piya Pitutecha, President of the Rayong Provincial Administrative Organisation, explained that they are digging ponds to trap concentrated chemical run off, after extinguishing the fire at the Win Process factory. The ponds, which will be lined, are to trap concentrated chemical sludge. before the water overflows from the factory’s original wastewater storage ponds. It was revealed that after digging down to a depth of 5 metres, water was discovered, that had a dark black appearance, with a strong stench similar to engine oil. This is thought to be chemicals seeping underground, from the factory, that have accumulated over a long period of time. They are expected to dig to about 10 metres depth and a total of 3-4 of the ponds will be required to receive approximately 250,000 cubic feet of waste water. The excavation, hoped to be completed within 4 days in time for the upcoming rainy season. The soil removed is being used to reinforce the existing ponds on the site.

FAA is now, also investigating Boeing for apparent missed inspections on 787 Dreamliner. “Boeing “voluntarily informed us in April" that the plane maker may not have completed required inspections to confirm that there was adequate bonding and grounding where the wings join the carbon fiber fuselage on certain 787 jets.” https://www.npr.org/2024/05/06/1249432229/faa-investigation-boeing-787-dreamliner

Thai media update report, “This damage, was reported before Songkran. Suan Luang District led by Mr. Bancha Suebkrapan, District Director, coordinated with the Public Works Department, Bangkok. to take corrective action, to repair the bridge. Currently, about 50% of the bridge has been repaired, with temporary steel pillars being used and measures taken to reinforce the strength of the concrete pillars. The authority asked for cooperation to prohibit trucks from using the bridge, but cars and people can use as normal. The full repairs are expected to take approximately 60 days to complete.”

Thank you

Here, I have blown the picture up for you. The metal supports are the red posts, and are completely separate from the bamboo scaffolding.

Sorry, have no idea on the load capacity of these supports, or how damaged or corroded the original, reinforced concrete piers really are. As I said above, you would hope an assessment has been made by a structural engineer, for this temporary repair solution.

There is bamboo scaffolding, which seems to be doing very little to support, just for working on as stated by @Ralf001 It looks to be that there are metal supports between the concrete piers, they remind me of acrow props, temporary supports.

A quick google of that books find a better quote for you, “In their working life, many people stay in unfulfilling jobs because they feel constrained by their present experience or because they fear change. Dyer shows that by being enthusiastic and flexible, you can find the work to be happy.”

Have just seen that, some temporary metal supports have been installed.

It was the sign that got my attention, no one is going to take any notice of it. Would hope the local authority had a structural engineer look at the piers.

Locals have warn authorities of the poor condition of the concrete piers on the bridge over Phra Khanong Canal, Soi On Nut 39, Suan Luang District. A warning notice has been put up, saying trucks are prohibited from using the bridge and are asked to use an alternative route.

The government are trying to be proactive, by giving general basic advice, after the recent chemical incidents. Just wonder how many people will even see this DDPM (Department of Disaster Prevention and Migration) safety leaflet. Thai translation by me.

This fire was today deemed extinguished. The Provincial Public Health Office said; “During the fire,, a number of fire trucks from Bangkok and local administrative organisations in the area. Plus 14 vehicles and 10 backhoes from the Samut Sakhon Provincial Administrative Organisation and Panchapon Company, along with 300 government personnel, volunteers, and Panchapon Company personnel, were used to suppress the incident. The blaze ended at 10:10 a.m. on May 6, 2024. The next step will be using a backhoe to dig up the burnt paper, together with a fire truck to extinguish the embers.”
