Okay let's try and pull some positives out of the experience.

The plane didn't crash and they didn't lose my luggage and get this guys - that was on BOTH legs.

Oh and nearly forgot, the projector worked on the return journey.

Take a close-up look at your ride:

This Phuket Air 747 was cast off by Garuda if that's any indication of how worn it is.

Or a 50/50 special ... half fly ... half paddle ( if he is lucky ) When Garuda pension off an aircraft it is more than shagged.

When long range twin engine aircraft like the A300 began flying trans oceanic flights they had a name for it, EROPS (Extended Range Operations).

The cynics called it Engines Run Or Passengers Swim

I have flown with them several times, no problems, one scedule change which meant I missed my flight but the put me up at the miracle Grand all expences paid and gave me three seats to myself for the flight back, pretty good service for the price

flew them bkk-lgw-bkk - we fine. Good service, entertainment ok, food great. can't fault them.

did notice one of the wings moving a bit too much though

We need the opinion of lampard10, our resident aircraft engineer on this:

http://www.airliners.net/open.file?id=7539...&next_id=748048

Why all the black where the vertical stabilizer meets the fuselage? Lubrication seepage? crud from the apu? heat from the apu blackening the paint?

I love classic airliners, but don't think they should be in mainline service like this.

I get a bit worried when I see their airplanes sitting on the tarmac. If they cant even be bothered to keep them clean then what about the important stuff like the engines! Same with One Two Go.

Any up-date Aiir?
