I looked at this topic and wondered if I was back in 1994 or something, lol.

I have a couple of the games mentioned, but I don't think I will want to part with them. Good luck in your quest!

To also add, the equipment they use (MD-88) Those JT-8D engines drink fuel even on short hop flights, they require a lot of maintenance due to age and then the cost to run the company. I think one aspect they should change to ensure efficient running is their aircraft. Boeing 737-800s like what CAL use, even Dash 8s just to start and when the ball gets rolling, upgrade their equipment

News / "Red Bull" drink billionaire Chaleo dies in Thailand

(Reuters) - Chaleo Yoovidhya, who rose from poverty to become one of the world's richest men thanks to astute marketing of the "Red Bull" energy drink, has died in his native Thailand.

Local media said he had died of natural causes in hospital in Bangkok on Saturday. His age was variously put at 89 or 90, although some sources gave his date of birth as August 17, 1923, making him 88.

Chaleo was ranked 205th on the Forbes list of the world's wealthiest people, with a fortune it put at $5 billion.

Born into a Chinese immigrant family, he never flaunted the wealth he accumulated and avoided publicity. According to Thailand's Nation newspaper, he had not given a media interview or made any public appearances for 30 years.

The Nation said it had interviewed his son, Saravudh, as part of a multimedia series to run next month.

Saravudh recalled how his father developed the Red Bull brand at home and abroad after his small pharmaceutical company started producing energy drinks in the 1970s.

"While the market leader of the energy-drink market mainly targeted the capital, Red Bull pushed into the provincial market first, gaining a foothold by distributing free samples to truck drivers," he said.

Only then did he market it in the capital, Bangkok, with brand-building that was quite novel for Thailand at the time, before going international with Austrian partner Dietrich Mateschitz in the mid-1980s.

Mateschitz, who had discovered the powers of Red Bull as a cure for jet lag, is now number 193 on the Forbes list.

Chaleo never had the benefit of higher education but his son said he studied English and law by himself. His acumen and experience led governments to turn to him for help and he had sat on health committees and advised the prime minister.

The Red Bull brand has been promoted internationally through a Formula One racing team and in the United States by soccer team the New York Red Bulls.

This is what happens when you don't have the financial aid from any government. The mere fact they lasted THIS long, kudos! Take away government funding from Caribbean Airlines nuh, no more shiney ATR 72-600s and no 767-300 to Gatwick.

Jamaican and our government cock blocked Red jet when they wanted to start up operations and Red jet seems to be paying the price now. Yes I will admit it is not the best choice of aircraft but beggars can't be choosers. Oh well, let us hope that Red Jet can get back in the air and jam the competition!

What cracks me up the most is he waits until they're in the most vulnerable position and then he strikes. On another note, why do people not lock their doors?
