Please Welcome A New Author To Jettoajet: Alan!!

Intro

This blog is relatively new in the grand scheme of things, being only about 2 years old. However, over the past, I have always tried to keep up the best I can, but there seems to be so much in aviation that one person just can't fully know.

Well, for the first time in this blog's history, we will be adding a new writer to this site: Alan. While he will be posting an introduction post, I'd like to welcome him here and explain a little bit about why Alan will be writing here (Alan will explain further).

Soft Introduction To Alan

A few months ago, Alan reached out to me on Instagram and let me know that he had been following the blog. We seemed to build somewhat of a bond, as he seems to be more into aviation than I (in a good way, ha), and we both formed a connection over our love for Thai Airways.

Alan has played a critical role in a lot of information about Thai Airways, and any route additions I have posted to Thailand, as if anything touches Thailand, he seems to know everything about it. Alan is in circles within Thai Airways, which provides him exclusive access to the future of the airline, so this will mean he will be sharing these through this blog! So exciting, and I am so grateful that this is something he wanted to do! Really.

Additionally, Alan also has some incredible trip reports, which I am personally excited to read, such as vintage reviews of the 747, A300, and A330, as well as more up-to-date reviews. I'll let Alan go into it more, but yeah, it's going to be pretty incredible to read about these old reviews.

Ancient TG 744, which Alan sent me

Finally, I'll let Alan do the spoilers about everything, but he will be having some trip reports which are extremely recent, perhaps including an inaugural 😉.

Why I Am Grateful To Alan

There are a couple of reasons as to why I want to give a big shoutout to Alan, and honestly, why I am extremely happy Alan is on board.

• For starters, I have never really wanted to monetize this blog (although that might change; I have been thinking about it), so for someone to come on board and offer to write for free, purely out of the love for aviation, is truly remarkable. There are a few people in the world who would do that, and I hope it goes noticed.

• Secondly, I have been battling away with both physical and mental health issues at the moment. While I seem to be back on the right trajectory, I am currently working through some childhood trauma at the moment, including compassion-based therapy, as well as EMDR, and induced panic attacks. Combine that with anaphylaxis the other day and a recent motorcycle accident, I am grateful that Alan can be here to write when things are rough around the edges.

So, overall, not only is this a good addition to the website for all the readers, but I am happy to welcome Alan on board for my sake as well 😅. Stay tuned for his intro post, which should be coming soon!

Thank You!

Thank you to all who have tuned into this blog over the past year or two, and I am happy to announce that there will be a secondary writer being added extremely shortly. With extensive knowledge of the aviation scene in Thailand and aviation as a whole, Alan is a fantastic addition to this site.
