Large Hanger Type Building Near Butterfly Bar

Featured Replies

Came past said building today, on right hand side, just past Butterfly Bar on way to Maprachan and low and behold there's something outside that looks very much like an airship! :D

Bit like that thing they have flying over golf championships etc.

So I thought, maybe the BiB are setting up another breathaliser check for all them low flying microlites we get over the res. :o

Anyone else see it?? :D

Do you think it`s the latest specialist squad from Bangkok? :D

I noticed last week there was a wind sock on the top, wondered why - Humm?

I haven't seen it but I'll take a look tomorrow.

BTW where is Buterfly Bar. I live off Siam Country Club.

When you're heading towards Maprachan from Suk. Rd. after passing the driving range on your left you'll come to a X rd. with warning light. Go straight over and Butterfly Bar is approx. 100 metres on right. There's a large butterfly sign. The land with the airship and hanger is another 50 metres further on.

If you've got the gf/wife with you, make sure you don't take her to see the butterflys. They're not the insect variety but they do like to settle on you! :o

A local that doesn't know about the butterfly bar? :o

As monsieurhappy says... don't take the missus... :D

Taoism: shit happens

Buddhism: if shit happens, it isn't really shit

Islam: if shit happens, it is the will of Allah

Catholicism: if shit happens, you deserve it

Judaism: why does this shit always happen to us?

Atheism: I don't believe this shit

It was on the Pattaya News the other night. Some local copper has gone into the airship business. He will be selling the advertising on the side and flying it over Pattaya and Jomtiem.

" I'm Nud.........fly me "

( 10cc I think ? )

The thought of going up in a Thai airship gives my butterflies in my stomach :o

Calling the local copper names will only get you into trouble.

Wonder how he can afford it? :D

Must have terrible hand cramp writing all those "Bar stay open late, Ok" permits. :o

TIP (This Is Pattaya). :D

Wonder what rank he is?

Do they have colonel’s in the Thai police force? if so maybe he is Colonel Blimp… :o

Passed it again this morning - no, I wasn't making a quick detour to the Butterfly bar - it is indeed an airship.

I wonder if you can drive in and have a closer look, or is it off limits? Seems to be a brand new hanger -type building next to it.

I am sure he said it was a ten Million Baht Investment, so he must be about the same rank as Thaksin was !
