KhunBENQ Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) Incident: Nok Air B738 at Trang on Aug 6th 2013,runway excursion during rejected takeoff http://avherald.com/h?article=466790ad They do a little excursion on the runways sometimes In this case seems it was an aborted take off attempt in heavy weather. Heavy on the brakes and slid off the runway. I remember the TG plane stuck in the fields at Khon Kaen when doing a failed turn on the tarmac.

South Posted July 5, 2015 Author Share Posted July 5, 2015 http://www.thai-aviation.net/files/Air_Accidents.pdf Intersting reading ....... scroll to the end for the recent incidents. I live in the south - Nakhonsri, Krabi, Phuket, Trang, Koh Samui, Hadyai, Surat and if I remember correctly even Ranong have all had incidents that I remember and that is only in the south!

KhunBENQ Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 According to the Bangkok Post this happened 6 October 2013 Flight number DD-8610 CNX to Udon Thani. All onboard were safe. Defintely not. This incident involved a Nok Air Saab 340 turboprob. Completely different what is in the opening post, http://avherald.com/h?article=469862b5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNXBKKMAN Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Skidding off a wet runway doesnt happen very often but its not unusual at the smaller thai airports. Its happened a few times at Trang. A plane skidded off into the grass at Chiang Mai about 2 months ago. If theres not a fireball explosion and fatalities they dont get much exposure and are quickly forgotten.

CNXBKKMAN Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 This is not a good photo but its the Nok Saab at Udon minus the titles and markings after it was damaged in that incident above. Photo was taken from the same flight but now a 737-800 from Chiang Mai to Udon May 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMA_FARANG Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 My favorite incident is where a Thai Airways plane parked on the ground in Paris was hit by a French catering company's food service truck that was bringing in flight meals to the plane. The plane was a Thai International A-380 on the ground in Paris. Sounds like a joke, but it really happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
