SeaVisionBurma Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 IF I am not wrong HS-TAP(Pathum Thani) has been withdrawn from use and it is being stored at Suv/DM airport (can't remember) early last year. According to the Thai Aircraft register: HS-TAP Airbus A300B4-622R c/n 635 ex F-WWAP ff 10-Apr-92; regd 29-Jun-92 to Thai Airways International Co. Ltd [Don Mueang]; "Pathum Thani"; moved base to Suvarnabhumi Sep-06; withdrawn from service Mar-12 & ferried to Don Mueang for storage; listed for sale by Thai Airways International Sep-12; current Dec-12; believed awaiting scrapping at Don Mueang Mar-13 Withdrawn from service March 2012, but looks like it was back in service temporarily in December (or at least listed as current again). Pretty sure its back on the hardstand at DMK again now, out of use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 ^^ SVB - Appalling effort - no ... Mistake - Yes ... Mr Smith ... I left the Thai name on because by it's markings, it's fairly well know as Thai. SVB ... Indeed it is a Thai Boeing 747-4D7 in Star Alliance livery ... So SVB ... how did you pick in the 5 mins between me posting and you spotting correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaVisionBurma Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Thai Airways only have one of this aircraft type (747-400) in this particular livery.. made it easier to get the registration details. I've got photos of this particular aircraft myself somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeaVisionBurma Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Definitely TG. Its a staggered 2-4-2 economy, so its not a Boeing. I'll guess at an A300-600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabC Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Thai 747-400, but I normally use the front Door and turn left. It must be just before landing as the Hostess is not in traditional dress and the curtain between First and Business is open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Go Lucky Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 TG Boeing 747-4D7.. TG still have about 15(should be around there) 747-400 still active and all happen to be 747-4D7.. (someone please verify.. thank you ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 and the difference between a 744 and 744D7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaVisionBurma Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 and the difference between a 744 and 744D7? No difference. Boeing designates a 'customer code' for all deliveries. Thai Airways code is D7 So whenever they purchase a 747-400 series aircraft, it is designated as a 747-4D7 Airbus does the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrantSmith Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Not quite the same... Our Francophile friends at Airbus don't do it the same as their American counterparts... The 2 alphanumerical indicators on a Boeing indicate the customer, on an Airbus it denotes an engine manufacturer and specification. For example, a TG A330-300 is technically an A330-343 (when armed with Rolls Royce Trent donks) and also an A330-321 (when armed with Pratt & Wittney donks). SQ - who also use the A330 - also have the same last 3 digits on their birds, depending on their choice of donk - fairly certain they're mostly Rolls Royce Trent 700's...
