.....not one.....not two......but three.

Appears they have been bought and sold several times and Malaysian Airport Systems can't locate current owners.

I know this belongs in Flight but thought there was enough general interest to post it in general chat.

Perhaps Inc. should acquire one for "AULRO Courier Services"?
How about it, Dave?

Yeah, Ian. Makes you wonder, surely the storage fees must be adding up.:confused:

H mmm, keep a eye on Ebay I reckon. :) Wonder if it would be a auction or buy now sale ?
Would be a fairly plane add though with some jumbo size pics.

Common theme with air travel. Can't find owners of parked up planes. Lose a plane mid flight can't find those either.

It's claimed that the airport knew who owned them all along:
Swift Air Cargo claims ownership of three Boeing 747s, denies they were abandoned at Kuala Lumpur airport - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) (http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-12-11/swift-air-cargo-claims-ownership-of-abandoned-boeing-747s/7022868)

Airport posted the advert to stop them pulling a SWIFT-y ;)

I think it might be an Australian based company. Here's the staff photo which looks vaguely familiar:
