Notes:
On 9/10/1988, this GA B742 was damaged at Don Muang. Whilst taxiing into the gate, the brakes failed (other reports indicated that the pilot failed to stop) and the aircraft didn't stop, ploughing into the terminal by 2 metres and injuring 3 pax. It is pictured here 6 days after the incident being towed for repairs, with the damaged nose covered to prevent any embarrassment. However, they forgot to cover the engines and the wing, which obviously hit the airbridge. A rare catch for me
