If you were in Malaysia and happened to read the newspaper, you would have seen an advert seeking the unknown owner of three Boeing 747 planes. They were left abandoned on the tarmac of Kuala Lumpur International Airport and, if are not claimed within 14 days, could be destroyed.

The ad placed in The Star and Sin Chew Daily newspapers explains that the unclaimed Boeing 747-200Fs could be sold to recover the charges owed by the owner, including parking and landing fees among other charges.

According to their air codes, the planes belong to Air Atlanta Icelandic, but were sold by the Icelandic firm in 2008 and have remained at KLIA for more than a year. The airport has made attempts to contact the last known owners, described as “internationals”.

I don’t know why they are not responding. There could be many reasons. Sometimes it could be because they have no money to continue operations.

Although this may seem like an unusual event, it actually happens quite frequently all over the world.

The giving of such notice by way of advertisement is a common and reasonable step in the process of debt recovery especially in cases where the company concerned has ceased operations and is a foreign entity whereby exhaustive steps undertaken to find a contact person have not been successful.

Are they yours?
