Boeing 747 in NaJomtien

[Oink]

Has anyone else noticed the Boeing 747 in the plot on the South side of the Ambassador Hotel.

Well it is close enough to be on the Pattaya forum

[KittenKong]

I was wondering what they meant when the media talk about "Pattaya Airport". Now I know.

In reality I suspect that this is probably intended to be a theme restaurant. Fits in well with the bizarre Mimosa "attraction" nearby, and the other one near VIP condo.

They have been slowly expanding since at least 2002 when these photos where taken.

No I didn't notice and I passed by today?

Can you see it from sukhumvit road?

[Nice Boyd]

I saw part of American jet on side of road, yesterday, 747, I think I might have noticed, unless behind Foliage

With the tail nearly 20m high (That's as high as a 8 story building), how can you miss it, (if it is a 747)

Ditto.

I drive past there at least 10 times every week. Never seen a Jumbo Jet.

On the southbound side of Sukhumvit road, just south of Ambassador City, there is an "military surplus" style place - but nothing as large as a 747.

It's behind the main police box office.

Amazing sight.

This is another trick of the eye

It's not a red, white and blue 777 is it?

That's pretty crude...

An 8 story building for pygmies maybe.

Dunno. I got a chuckle out of it. Too early, maybe?

[LennyW]

Well I just passed there just now and can confirm that there is indeed a 747 fuselage on the ground just south of Ambassador on the same side, the mind boggles! !

[Asiantravel]

after so many " there is " ! and " no there isn't " would it be too much to ask for a photograph?

[Nice Boyd]

If same side as Ambassador, I was probably concentrating on war surplus on other side side of road

I assume it didn't crash so it mush have been transported there, not an easy task unless it came in small pieces?

[HooHaa]

the buzz is that a new themed bar/club complex "Mile High Club "is slated to open there in late 2016. Investors have earmarked over 250 million THB for phase 1 and it sounds like it will be quite the venue. the group is the same group that were involved with Bangkok's airport themed Terminal 21.

The only way to transport an non-airworthy aircraft these days is to disassemble it.

Years and years ago I went to a nightclub in San Francisco that had an old plane set up like it had crashed on an island. it was pretty cool. They had it set up with tables inside.
