Will the owner who forgot his three Boeings please collect them from KLIA / KUL?

One of the 747s was already stripped for engines. Also not visible, avionics/cockpit. I mean, the typical replacement need wont be a wing .

So one of the planes is obviously unfit for flying unless a lot more money were to be spent on parts and repairs? I guess that one won't be collected by anyone anytime soon.

Sorry, but where did you hear this? There's no mention of anything being stripped from the planes on the news reports and the photos in the newspaper ad the airport placed shows the engines intact on all three planes.

There are reports that the owner of at least one of the aircraft has come forward with the reaction that the airport authorities should have been able to find the owner without any difficulty.
