This was sometime ago but I would be interested (as a regular to BKK) to know what exactly happened. It all seemed to be hushed up very quickly.

The SIA Captain (see my tax return) also known as the "Removal Man" on SIA flights had taxied and stopped past the correct stop line. The line itself was apparently a little tricky to see at night.

If it all goes quiet then you know SIA is in the wrong.

CAAS delivered us some very nice information documents to instruct pilots how far away one has to be in order not to cross someone other's line, specially on an oblique taxiway. It's ment as self-study. The distance needed may be up to 150m, so 3 times and more your aircraft's length.

Don't know what happened to the crew (originally had been suspended and sent to retraining).
