Childrens Day Bangkok 08/01/11

[Nick Bartley]

Today was childrens day in Thailand , where the airforce and other government organisations open up there bases / buildings to the public. So with child in tow it was off to the Thai Air Force open day at Don Mueng airport Bangkok , I was hoping to visit a couple of other bases but in the end only managed here and the Police heliport.
Haven't sorted out the logs yet but here are some photos
























































The next few photos were taken at the Police heliport

Nick,

Great pictures and a great report, looks like you planned this trip out to take in all these events.

Its nice to see people in shirt sleeve order and a bit of sunshine, instead of over here in cold, windy and wet England.

Enjoy your trip and keep the reports coming.

Have not seen many biz jets in your report though. I suppose it makes a change.

Happy Days

Bob

Hi Nick.
One of the aircraft you took a photo of has caught my eye before, because of the amount of detail in the paintwork.

There's some nice photo's here:





Note the embossed artwork that runs the full length of the Aircraft.
