tourleadersi Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Whats all the fuss about? There's a guy on our soi who would have both planes as good as new in a jiffy, just a little gaffer tape and hey presto! Photos seem to suggest a little more than a 'bump.'

Johnb 'I couldn't help it when I saw the plane was French your honour' 'Fair enough, case dismissed' Sure the pilot was Thai and maybe not English or even Italian?

GuestHouse Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 (edited) Sure the pilot was Thai and maybe not English or even Italian? Yes the pilot was Thai - How do I know - Because back in the late 90s Thai airways made a huge song and dance about getting rid of all their foreign pilots and becoming a 'Thai Only Company' - The announcement was followed by a number of safety incidents and at least two fatal crashes - one not announced in the press. Anyway, no need to be Italian - Italy has had its revenge Edited July 17, 2006 by GuestHouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayo Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 yeah, the thai only policy.. but it didn´t last (possibly due to all the little incidents that went wrong). They actively have at least two english, one dutch, and an american, that IO personally know, working as international route pilots- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sing_Sling Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Police are searching for the Thai pilot who fled the scene of the accident, leaving behind twodamaged aircraft, a pair of flip-flop sandles and a half eaten bowl of Ma-ma noodles. Welcome to Thailand and have a nice day! Yes, they'll have trouble catching him . . . how can they identify him if he left his flip-flops behind!!!!!

Totster Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Police are searching for the Thai pilot who fled the scene of the accident, leaving behind twodamaged aircraft, a pair of flip-flop sandles and a half eaten bowl of Ma-ma noodles. Air crash investigators have released a copy of the cockpit voice recorder in which the following conversation is recorded between the Pilot (P) and Co-pilot (CP): P: I’m hungry CP: I’m hungry too P: I tell you what, you taxi the aircraft and I’ll go get the Ma-Ma CP: It’s your turn to taxi the aircraft and my turn to get the Ma-Ma – You only want to get the Ma-Ma so you can get to the prawn flavour P: Yes, but I am the Captain CP: It’s not fair – I never get the prawn flavoured Ma-Ma, and it’s my favourite P: OK OK, I tell you what, we’ll both get the Ma-Ma CP: But who’s going to taxi the aircraft P: Well, I can let my Hi-So friend sitting in his free 1st class seat help out by taxiing the aircraft for us CP: But he’s only ten years old P & CP MAI PEN RAI! Moment’s later – CRUNCH Sound of aircraft doors opening and footsteps running in all directions. Thats just bloody funny ! totster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
