  1. Current cost to renew a passport in Bangkok is £127.51. £12.75 a year £1.06 a month. Why do people risk their extension of stay and cause themselves problems and stress, by waiting to the last minute to save less than 50 baht a month?
  2. First to go, but will it make a difference to either their reputation or engineering standards. https://fortune.com/2024/02/21/boeing-737-max-ed-clark-resigns-leadership-management-change/
  3. Fully agree. See I am not the only one that find others annoying.55555 Have a good day.
  4. 166,859 Is the average daily world death rate for 2024, but you think one death in Pattaya is abnormal?
  5. Sorry but how is that proof there were 2 people in the room? Did you even watch the video? Lots of soda bottles present, could mean many different things, really likes soda water, he liked it with his whiskey, he was forgetful, he had poor housekeeping, he had a visitor, etc. Will not stop the AN keyboard Sherlocks’ jumping to a conclusion, and if you can get a bit of Thai bashing, about the police, or the better for their ego. People do die everyday the world over.
  6. Sorry but I did not say anything about open bottles. The video I posted was of the scene, the real image, I posted the video as the AN keyboard Sherlocks were jumping to conclusions from a few words in a news report.
  7. Thai media has shown his room, he had more than a couple of soda bottles around. Video below is censored, but shows the covered body being removed. https://fb.watch/qmvi5h5ALT/?
  8. It was just an extra 1000 baht, got the single re entry the same day as applied for the extension. I was told that the new re entry was needed because the under consideration period can be past the expiry date of current extension. My under consideration date was 2 weeks past expiry of the existing extension, so new single re entry was to that new date. IO at airport thought it funny to stamp me in for only 48 hours.
  9. I had to get a new single re entry for the under consideration period, my existing multi re entry was not valid,
  10. I believe once you apply for the extension, you will need a new re entry permit, the existing one is not valid. Sort with the office about home visit, and yes you are allowed to go during under consideration period, as I have done it last year.
  11. Have you tried the steps recommended by Netflix help centre. https://help.netflix.com/en/node/470
  12. Yes Boeing have some mayor current and ongoing issues, but do you really believe Airbus have never had issues? Couple of examples. https://simpleflying.com/airbus-investigating-unprompted-a350-descents/ https://aviationsourcenews.com/manufacturer/easa-issues-airworthiness-directive-over-airbus-a380-fuselage/ If you want full facts, you can research the EASA airworthiness data base. https://ad.easa.europa.eu/ Or FAA directives https://www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/airworthiness_directives
  13. Yes fully agree, Boeing have a lot of work to do, to get the company reputation repaired, if it is even possible. This type of incident also gives the media an easy and possibly sensational headline/story. I like this quote from a passenger looking out the window on the 757 200 “there was some panic onboard the plane at first, as passengers saw what had happened to the wing, "but the pilot had come back, looked at it, took some pictures of it, talked to the guys on the ground, said yup, proceed to Denver [they said], shouldn’t be a problem."
  14. Fully agree, aircraft involved, 757 200, registration N57111, was manufactured in 1994, but lets not let the real facts get in the way of some posters. The 757 200 has had 579 fatalities, since it started flying in 1982. Mayor incidents. 1990 - A Boeing 757-21B passenger plane, registered B-2812, was destroyed when it was struck by a Boeing 737 on Guangzhou-Baiyun Airport (CAN), China. 1995 - American Airlines Flight 965 impacted mountainous terrain 1996 - AeroPeru Flight 603, a Boeing 757-200, crashed into the sea off Lima, Peru 1996 - Alas Nacionales flight 301 crashed into the ocean 2001 - Flight 77 departed Washington-Dulles at 08:10 for Los Angeles. The aircraft was hijacked by five terrorists, then crashed into the Pentagon 2002 - Bashkirian Airlines flight 2937, a Tupolev Tu-154M, and DHL flight 611, a Boeing 757-200PF cargo plane, crashed following a mid-air collision near Überlingen
  15. ThaiRSC gives daily and yearly totals for road injuries and deaths. https://www.thairsc.com/eng/ If you compare with most western countries, the big difference is motorcycles injuries and deaths, due to the amount of motorcycles in each country. UK general data and motorcycle specific data. https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/road-accidents-and-safety-statistics https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/reported-road-casualties-great-britain-motorcyclist-factsheet-2022/reported-road-casualties-great-britain-motorcyclist-factsheet-2022#motorcycle-traffic-and-reported-casualties
  16. Great post, but seems it was wasted on many. 5555555
  17. Excessive speed and poor driving, maybe more, combined to make a life changing situation yet again. Happens far too often. The driver had to very lucky to survive this impact. RPReplay_Final1708406167.mov
  18. Yes, those numbers were reported in Khaosod on 8 February, but links are not allowed to them. This report gives the background to why the increase is being requested. https://www.ttgasia.com/2024/02/19/arrivals-bounce-a-win-win-for-koh-samui/ Report states an extra 73 flights a day, but Khaosod says increased to 73. “The positive bump has also given more weight to a recent proposal to upgrade the island’s airport with new technology that will make the hub more efficient – able to handle an extra 73 flights per day – and more sustainable.”
  19. Your ability to just try to repeat my message, is another example of you lack of critical thinking. Bye, as I have better things to do than waste my time on people like you.
  20. Do you have to try hard to come up with your ridiculous posts or does it come naturally? Seems that facts and the truth just passes you by, is it nice in that alternative reality?
  21. Sorry I see Sunak has beaten them to it. 55555 https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-politics-68314723
  22. You do realise that by using a quote from the Guardian, that some of the conspiracy theory nut jobs, will never believe it. Waiting for the claims that the Guardian only prints left wing lies, and the reality is the Tory’s second place was really a moral victory, in their alternative reality. 555555
  23. You should be more careful on a public forum and should block out your personal details. You have posted your full name, picture and Bangkok Bank account details. Those details are not needed to get your point over.
  24. Sorry but that is a picture of the translated police order. Not my wording. (Full order below) There is the word ‘or’ between 3 and 4 Immigration wants to see the monthly transfer, as proof of that income.
  25. Thailand is classed category 2 country, under The International Aviation Safety Assessment Program (IASA Program) “Category 2 (Does not meet ICAO standards): The FAA has assessed the country's civil aviation authority and determined that it does not provide safety oversight of its air carrier operators in accordance with the minimum safety oversight standards established by ICAO” https://www.faa.gov/about/initiatives/iasa/definitions CAAT (Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand) issues Air Operator Certificates (AOC) for Thailand. https://www.caat.or.th/en/archives/53484
