Higs - Initials are R L, so no cigar.
Tunedog - I accept it is not my field, but found it and thought you guys and girls might find it interesting as I did.
Weather FROM the north normally means an northerly airstream as far as I am aware.
Clients/friends who mentioned this are on the northern end of the airport and this incident was just down the street from them.
I have nothing against Air Asia X, and yes - they pay no commission but due to our corporate mix we have only have use for them on intra Asia runs where we charge a whole $10 per passenger sector to cover our costs.
Best regards
