Interesting, and indeed not very unusual in Thailand (see below). Though I have to say that was next to impossible to spot from the photos, given poor resolution and overexposure in the relevant area.

I have seen an airplane fuselage somewhere in Isaan last July, when I drove from BKK o Sisaket and back. I can't remember where it was, but if I remember correctly there was a sign saying they were developing the plane into something, I think a restaurant.

Also, there is the (new-ish?) 747 Cafe right here outside Bangkok, just a couple of kilometers from Suvarnabhumi: https://goo.gl/maps/c2zcQq99Vpr44M3e6

And then there is the Airplane Graveyeard smack in the city of Bangkok, on Ramkhamhaeng Road: https://goo.gl/maps/Xgt363GHejU9o1ec9

 

I suspect this was once one of the now defunct Orient Thai fleet. I remember seeing one stripped of its engines at I think Udon Thai airport. When it stopped operations it had a lot of old aircraft including -200 , -300 and -400 747s.

I hope they will convert it into go-go bar named "Aeroplan Boys" 

I also remember seeing scrap planes at Udon Thani and other airports in Thailand.

Seeing one in the centre in a city centre is rarer.   Expect it to be a restaurant.

I can see the attraction of fitting out a 747 with comfortable seating to create a novel dining experience.  

What I don't see the attraction of is the reverse model of fitting aircraft seating into an ordinary building.  There is one near Chong Nonsi, complete with economy class seating and very few customers, when I look through the window.  I have no intention of going in.

That's on the corner of Silom, in the former Thai Airways office and operated by Thai to generate at least some modest income. There may be few customers later in the day and indeed I believe they close at something like 2pm. However, they sell some very popular pastries in the morning - starting from I think 6am !! - which at least in the beginning led to massive queues.

Wow you had a direct flight to Pattaya Now I understand what they mean with "semi-commercial" ...
It was a tough question, even now I couldnt say there is a plane hidden in the first picture!
Please do more quiz with us, you are the only turist in the village country!

And thanks to everyone who is posting in these quiet times!!!

I still can't see it. What am I missing?

I missed no post. I see the plane in the one near the bottom. I don't see it in the first photo. Trust me, it is possible.

At first none of us saw it so don't feel bad. If you look carefully under that red canopy you will notice neat row of plane windows in the background

NOW, I get it. Thank you!

I thought this might be too easy when first posting, but I have to admit, the plane is rather well hidden in the first shot.

At last I've seen it. No more sleepless nights.

i think we all subconsciously looked for hidden boy's butt or something and nobody in his right mind suspected it may be a plane or an octopus or even flying fish in the middle of the city

I have seen that whilst out walking, although not very well hidden.

it was probably much more obvious in the real life scene rather than a photograph, too

The various lockdowns seem to be affecting us all in different ways now! haha

Here's the next question.  What type of business or other activity is conducted in this building ?

Too easy. Miles shopping mall!

No, not Mike's Shopping mall.   I haven't made it that easy.

Ill take a punt. A shoe shop - MIKE being a Thai rip off of NIKE.

There is mike hotel, shopping arcade near boyz town, but dont recall this white building mike lol

Neither a hotel, nor a shoe shop.

Oh, that's an easy one. The sign consists of three M - MMM - which is short for "Men, Men, Men".

 

Explanation: Since the "Boyz" of Boyz Boyz Boyz (once popular night club in Pattaya) got older and older, the club had to be renamed accordingly to "Men, Men, Men".
