He is referring to a 747-400. Bonus info: all TG 747s are registered HS-TGx (not to confuse with the actual 747 with the registration HS-TGX )
TGF was the one that went off the runway at Suvarnabhumi in bad weather back in 2018.

finally, the presenation of TG's rescue plan has been delayed until January 2022...

Thai Airways Internationalsaid in a regulatory filing to the Stock Exchange of Thailand it expected to submit its business rehabilitation plan to creditors in January.
If approved, the plan will be put forward to the country's Central Bankruptcy Court for consideration. "If the court considers and orders approval of the rehabilitation plan and appoints a plan administrator, the process is expected to be completed by the first quarter or early in the second quarter of 2021," THAI said. The airline sought the protection of the Central Bankruptcy Court in May after the Thai government baulked at providing a cash bailout for the flag carrier.

Thai Airways International Plc (THAI) is suspending its joint investment plan for a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility at U-Tapao Airport until the aviation sector recovers, said THAI's acting president Chansin Treenuchagron on Monday.

Most amusing. I note that the offence (avoiding paying for 300 kg excess luggage weight) occurred in 2009!

well - let's be clear: that's all (part of Thai's) history...
I am much more concerned about Thai's future (see my post dated 25.Nov):
Thai Airways International said in a regulatory filing to the Stock Exchange of Thailand it expected to submit its business rehabilitation plan to creditors in January.
If approved, the plan will be put forward to the country's Central Bankruptcy Court for consideration. "If the court considers and orders approval of the rehabilitation plan and appoints a plan administrator, the process is expected to be completed by the first quarter or early in the second quarter of 2021," THAI said.
