Interesting Article from Bangkok Post quoting a crackdown on NON THAI crew
due to the recent incidents (Phuket one of them) involving Foreign Crew.
Apparently CRM Course to be brought in over next 3 months along with this Air Law and Human Perf and Limitations is what I read,
Any other Info?

yeah;
btw the "foreign" crew involved were not really foreign; means they were asian too.
I have flown with asians from different countries and don't really see a difference:}
Nah, a lot of the whitemen cannot fly, they talk a good approach and landing. The asians are a lot more superior in their skills. Difficult realty, but youve just got to except it.

Possibly, Just that their English sucks and last time I looked that was a requirement. You might all be aces but you might still have to have us "white folks" along as interpreters.
Let's cut the racist crap. There are good and bad in all camps.

Which skills are you talking about??????
Why do insurance companies require a certain percentage of foreigners in the left seat?
Because of your superior skills???:E
OK, there are lots of good asian guys in the cockpit; but they had "western" training, maybe in USA or Australia, and they speak acceptable english;
on the other side you have the ex-military guys; no english,questionable skills and most important no CRM.
@rdr
I don'tknow about your skills but definitly you have to work on your attitude.

@rdr:
ok, pussy back and fourth;
can't remember that I claimed to have "much more superior skills" than you guys....but you did.
If you're dealing out blows you must take stick too.
Be honest, applies to both of us;)

Dear RDR:
Do you need a hug or was Papa a roll'n stone or what? The world is messed up enough without xenophobic comments being made here. Get a shrink buddy. I'm sure if the management got a hold of your identity and comments you made of this nature you'd be washing airplanes instead of flying them (maybe). Try not to act like to much of a tough guy behind the anonymity of this site, no ones buying it.
