When I read "major aviation center" I was flabbergasted, what not a hub? Then I read the article and saw "Thailand to become the aviation hub of South Asia" All is right in the universe and the earth is still spinning on it's axis, what a relief. 

 

3 Million Tons, what a temptation

Well it is the Hub for one thing. 

They must be kidding. Transferring between Don Muang and Suvarnabhumi for domestic/international flights is a major pain in the butt. Add in the unpredictability of Bangkok traffic on the free bus shuttle, everyone wastes at least half a day on transfers. At Don Muang in particular, some of the boarding gates are so remote I walk less playing 9 holes of golf.

The guys in the photo, are they attending a week long "how to build the perfect paper plane course?"

'Lupatria': Much too 'technical' for them, man, that'll be for the members of some sub-sub-committee they won't fail to install, to help yet another silly bunch of uniformed brass closer to the trough... Priorities, man! 

Another HUB, who would of guessed it?

 

Someone likes that word, all pipe dreams considering the country has a SH>> aviation reputation, fools on borrowed time

 

Waiting for the next Hub to be announced, can we have a Hub Of Liars and Cheats please (official)

'jobwolf': Indeed: at 1Baht/kg. that'd already be 3Billion in the pocket, the-same-pocket-as-usual, I mean, that's what it's all about: filling the trough... Hub-a-hub!

Nah, 'wakeupplease', there can be many 'hubs' of anything, but there's only one Guiness book of records title-holder, and, even when not published, some of us might have an idea which country might hold that title...

'Srikcir': Wow, don't exaggerate, only helicopters and blimps, the RTAF only has a few airplanes left which are able to fly, and lost 8% of the modern ones, when one crashed, last month...

Yeah- 3 in 5 years- shocking, isn't it.

Another dream.

Time Thailand had a "hub cap".

lost count of how many hubs they think they are. At least one a week since the Junta took control. In trying to make themselves the hub of everything they must be dizzy. Not enough hours in the day. They are a laugh.

Another f Hub, visions of grandeur. Next...

Make sure that your check in luggage is secure.!!!

Who comes up with this stuff. Thailand will be an international language comes to mind. ha ha

As an ex pilot god forbid.
