Well he certainly didn't keep it on the centreline.

The airport was hit by poor visibility on Tuesday due to torrential rain, which forced Nok Air's flight DD7410 from Don Mueang airport to circle above the airport for some time before making a safe landing at 4.55pm with 120 passengers on board, Mr Thaworn said.
Which of course was exactly the same conditions which wrecked the One Two Go flight at Phuket some years ago.

Thai mentality is as long as you wear your Buddha amulet pendant your safe.
This is a country where rules and regulations are broken every day and a nation with one of the highest road fatalities on the planet.
