Yeah that's Hilux's ZX-14R, we were there the day it was delivered coincidentally. Considered driving it back to Chaam for him but couldn't find the aft-thruster boost controller and wing-flap controls....

1369 I assume is the Ao Manao runway. They let you drive on like that? Pete :cheers:

I was driving down there last week, and helicopters were using the runway (OK, more control than an aeroplane), but no restrictions for driving.

Thanks for the great video. Wish I could have joined.
I wonder what it will take to get to follow the runway to right down to the next crossing. That could be an fun little rush.

And by the way... MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL !!
