Aero clubs light sports aircraft (LSA) in the vicinity of Hua hin

I have noticed a couple of private airstrips just north of HH at Ta Yang and Bang Chong. Have seen a couple of LSA aircraft during my travels around and was wondering if there are any Aero clubs, LSA interest groups around the Hua Hin area?

Re: Oil Slick puts Hua Hin Beach at it's dirtiest ever ?

Returned to the beach about 5pm this afternoon accessing it from the soi behind cicada to take the duster (dog) for its daily walk. The beach was much cleaner than two days previously with only a few small oil spots noted on the sand. Most of the oil soaked debris had been removed with the only visi...

Re: Any Xbox 360 experts on the forum?

Unfortunately I have not managed to get a solution for you however my son mentions that the earlier xbox360 had issues with software and a key mismatch with cpu. I don't know if this will take you any further. He doesn't think roll back will resolve it.

Quality of vending machine drinking water

Just finished reading a news article with respect to the quality of water dispensed from vending machines in Bangkok with over half being found unsafe to drink.

Re: Any Xbox 360 experts on the forum?

Do you know how old and which model the Xbox 360 is? ( I think they have been around for about 10 years) Do you get any error messages when you insert a game disk? Will it still play dvd's? Zone/region set correctly for disks? I am no expert and have little knowledge but will ask my son if that is o...

Returned to the beach this afternoon to take the dog for a walk (white dog,bad idea) just below cicada. Decided to abandon the walk after a short distance.

Re: Internet freedom in Thailand is now as bad as in Burma

It is something to be quite mindful of generally and when using any form of electronic communication or social media. There was probably only about half a dozen cases before the Thai Courts regarding charges of lese majeste (apologies no grave acute or circumflex on my keyboard) between 1990 and 200...

Re: H.H vet teaching hospital appointment

As far as I am aware you can just walk in however it may be advisable to check before you go. I have attached a website link that contains phone numbers including emergency and hours of operation. Trust this will provide some guidance and help for you.
