Been staring them in the face for 81 years and still the political leaders deny the obvious and do nothing The word in "Appeasement". That is all that most (and I say most) Political Leaders want to do with each other and or with China, thesedays. Few if any of the modern day Political Leaders have...

[/quote] Sorry Pratt I did read the whole article but did not want to post all of it as it longer than the average attention span of most average Aussies. This whole discussion has taken place because you questioned the logic of a fire having more fuel to consume if the undergrowth is left to grow f...

Isn't he a real tough man :-& The thai man look likes like he is only a young teenager (and only 4 ft 6 inches tall) Give the White Man !!! 3 months in a Thai jail (while he awaits his trial) and a new Boyfriend each night. He might just think twice, next time. pipoz4444 https://forum.thaivisa.com/t...

"The aircraft came close to a sensitive IRGC military center at an altitude and flight condition that resembled hostile targeting. Under these circumstances, the aircraft was unintentionally hit," This is the statement I like to shift the blame That jet like all the others coming and going was on t...

You know, if they told me at the Airport that I was about to get on a Plane and fly out from a place where there was even the slightest possibility, that someone on the ground was walking around carrying a SAM or something similar, regardless of which Country it was, I would take one big step back a...

Plane goes up to 7000’in about two minutes after take off seems pretty normal to me. Plane then turns into fireball then crashes....not normal to me. Plane has puncture holes in fuselage seems like a SAM took this plane down. I am not even a armchair pilot however I do know where the good seats are...

My mate paid about 1,500 baht for a ticket today, pipoz.

Thats a good price compared to to my 10 days ago, but then it depends on what days and what time of day you fly.

Just curious, but is the T 1,500 on Thai Smile, and oneway or return BKK to Udon to BKK

Or is he flying out of DMK

A friend is flying from the UK into Suvarnabhumi at 4pm on the 25th of Jan. Should he buy a ticket from BKK to UT when he arrives at Suvarnabhumi, or online before he departs the UK? Thai Smile which flys out of Suv to Udon Thani, have significantly increased their ticket prices for this current ho...

"Spiking world oil prices would put a dent in the US economy also. Not a smart move if you want to get reelected." Also I would say the Golden Boy has a lot more issues to worry about than oil going up in price and his Reelection chances Actually, probably not. If by "Spiking" you are suggesting th...

A three-year-old Boeing 737-800. Apparently fight data shows that it only reached an altitude of 2.4 km, before suddenly disappearing, some three minutes after take-off.

STWW, you must have shares in Boeing, that you are trying to protect. :lol: :lol: :lol: I am like you, in that I go on what I read and research. It may be an interesting read and undoubtably others will read it as well. It points to a “Lack of Stability resulting from erors or oversights in the Desi...

The unfortunate thing about it is, that it has happened before (all be it in other areas) and it will happen again. I was in Adelaide during the Ash Wednesday fires of 1983 and fortunately I was down in the city and not in the Adelaide Hills themselves. It's frightening from a distance, let alone be...

When the mechanics couldn't keep up with Toyota BJ47 ute diesel engine rebuilds up in China back in 1983, we toyed with slinging spare Chrysler V8 gasoline engines from the unusable portable drill rigs into them. It took about 3 weeks and we only ever built the one as it proved very hard to handle ...

So it should. There was an article in the Phuket news this morning, that indicated/stated, that many of the Hotels in Phuket were only 50% full and this is meant to be "Peak season" :-k :-k This should worry some. :-k :-k Also a friend of mine was sitting in a Hotel in Pattaya last week in the run u...

What should the employer's letter say for a Multiple Entry (stay up to 60 days for each entry within the period of 6 months), please? This is the content of the letter my Employer gave to me for my application for my 12 month Multiple Entry Non Imm O-A . The letter template below came from a gentlm...

I realize that I am probably flogging a dead horse, and few might care anymore, but this Article McKechnie Aviation is interesting as it goes to the core of the real issue and what I refer to as a Design Flaw. By the way the McKechnie Aviation Article, is recent (one of several) and guess what, Boei...

Agree with everything you say Pipoz4444 except your last paragraph. No fat derrieres in Udon???, I must start going to the places you frequent up here in UT. Apart from that, yip far worse places to live. I can see how and why some guys are struggling a bit, I have just received my first UK State P...

Recesson or Not - Expats in Retirement I am not so pessimistic about Thailand’s long term future and certainly not pessimistic about living in Udon Thani down the track . :D For sure there will be a slowing down of Thailand’s economy, but this will also happen in and to many other Countries, in the ...

Just keep an eye on the Retail sector and the smaller shops within Central Plaza and the Big C's. They are normally the first to show signs when they can't afford their higher Rents. If and when you see a few closing down, you will know the slowdown is really starting to bite, the local Udon economy...
