Airport operating in severe weather

[simon43]

 I like this software. Works anywhere in the world too! https://www.flightradar24.com/7.71,97.24/7

 

Slightly off-topic.  The flightradar24 data receiver for Phuket Airport and the surrounding region was operated by me from my small hotel near to the airport.  But since about last September, I am no longer at that property.  The receiver (and the receiver for marinetraffic.com) remain at the property, but no longer connected to the internet...

 

There is unfortunately, zero likelyhood of me reactivating either receiver

At this point I don't need to even see one particular  TAA  plane to  know it's limping on by.  Poor  thing sounds like a volkswagen..  pwbaa pwbaa pwbaa pwbaa...PWBAAAAAA when the pilot decides it might need a bit more punch to get through some weather.  I almost flinch thinking of the day the engine can finally  'plodes  and blade shrapnel rains down.

You are making claims and commenting on things you obviously know nothing about.

Speed is life and altitude insurance is incorrect?  Disagree strongly. In fact several pilots told me this including my own flight instructor. As for TAA being unsafe, well  certainly you're entitled to defend it as a safe airline, but I'll comment  you obviously do not know what you're talking about.

Blah, blah, blah, Heard it all before. 

 

Here actually:

Those low flying planes are probably upsetting any horses quartered under the flight path.

 

Here, too.  TAA  rated among worst safety in the world.  I see low and slow Eva, not Quatar, ( is it flying to Phuket these days? )
