Never learned to write Korean using the alphabet, not that I know of any rules dictating a correct spelling, no problem doing it in Hangul however. Having worked several years in South Korea and more it's more than an interesting level of Korean knowledge I have, must admit I was surprised to see that you appear to know more aswell than the average man in the street. Jeju's delicacies indeed aren't the issue here, but I believe you started it off with a scenic tour of Jeju Island. Itaewon, and the transgender bars would fit in more though... If you're still there, and if it's still there, Old Town (not a transgender bar, as they are called in South Korea) on hooker hill used to be a good pick up place for the occasional Korean Ladyboy.

Here's different view on the speculation surrounding this crash http://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/2013-07-18/pilots-association-president-slams-ntsb-over-asiana-probe

I mentioned QF as the cause of the crash was bad communication between the flight crew. About the screenshots. The first part is written by someone who was fired by KAL, sounds like nothing more than sour grapes. I did mention before that KAL did great efforts to improve their safety, as can be read in your screenshots, which resulted in crash free flying for over a decade now. Air France lost 4 aircraft in the same period, American Airlines 2, US Air 6 between 1986 and 1994, not counting hijacked aircraft. Obviously even after 50 years of crash free flying one can always refer back to the period before that to try to make a point and call them unsafe. It's easy to shout after the accident, I knew it would happen... If it was such an ingrained problem as some of them claim, why don't we see more of these accidents happen? Again, a very unfortunate accident. If it involved a United 777 nobody would cry foul. The Airbus and Boeing 20 year market outlook are pretty similar and hoover around 8500 widebody aircraft worldwide.

I don't see how your experiences at Jeju are of any relevance to this topic. Besides, there's no need to go to Jeju to eat kim bap, next time try black pig meat or sam kjob sal from tong dweaji. As I mentioned before the 9 hull losses of KE and the 3 of OZ are the only hull losses. There's no data on hard landings or tail strikes available. Any number thrown out is purely speculation as no airline would publicly give out such information if it can be avoided. BTW, Who's The Studly? Pacman, There are several crashes that can be contributed to pilot error, even tough comparison might be premature as the NTSB still needs to publish its final findings. A Qantas 744 overran the runway at Dong Muang in 1990 after confusion between the captain and the first officer on whether to go around. The aircraft was fixed in order to prevent a hull loss on an otherwise spotless QF record, even tough a write off would have made more sense economically. A crash has almost never a single cause but is nearly always the result of a chain of events. Furthermore I need to point out that there's nowhere near 17000 wide-bodied airliners to be delivered in the next few years, worldwide. Let alone to Asian airlines. In fact the current backlog of widedody aircraft orders between the 2 dominating aircraft manufactures, Airbus and Boeing, is about 2500 aircraft worldwide.

Korean Air Cargo is the world largest cargo airline. Seoul - Jeju is the world's busiest domestic route. In addition to Korean Air and Asiana there are several other airlines, none of them with hull loses. Yes, you're only guessing. Define a hard landing and the necessary damage to qualify as one. Understood your motive but by quoting your friend your post lacks credibility. Korean Air had it's share of problems but reorganized themselves very well over the past decade. With no accidents in over a decade as a result. Your friends comments, are hugely exaggerated. As an aviation professional he should know better. Asiana's crash is very unfortunate, but by no means an indication of a cultural problem in the cockpit. The pilot landing the aircraft was not the captain. The theory of not overruling the captain has no ground here. It tells more about the news station than anything else really.

Pacman I'd give your captain a red card and suspect he has a hidden agenda. Did he get denied employment at Asiana or Korean Air? Did his Korean wife left him? He told you that Korean airlines lose on average 1 aircraft a year. They've lost a 747 freighter 2 years ago, but you'll need to go back at least 12 years before that crash since they've lost another aircraft. Asiana lost a total of 3 aircraft since it was founded in 1988, Korean Air lost 9 aircraft. This information can easily be verified on the internet. No need to analyze the rest of his comments.

She was at the bar every night I was there, the past 2 weeks. I was there 2 out of 3 nights. Last friday, at Batman's party, Kwang was being so annoying that Lita told her off. Kwang left and shouted she'd never set a foot in her bar again. She's a good kid but doesn't mix with the rest of the crew. Have to say that Famous current crew is the most enjoyable and fun lot I've seen under Lita's wings. Well done Lita!

Great. No need to walk far then. Any recommended hostess bars in 104 street?

I payed 600bath barfine in Koyo 7 on november 14th 2011. The chart says 300. I'll be carrying a print of the chart with me when in Pattaya next week.

I've booked at the Tonlésapguesthouse in street 104. Apparently it's above a bar called Pickled Parrot. Is the place ladyboy friendly? I'll be there january 29th for 3 nights before going to Shihanouk Ville. Anyone in town up for a drink?
