Aircraft left Santa Cruz a few months ago.
Did hear some rumors that the company did not pay Globejet for the 3 airplanes but cannot confirm this.
Understand there was some serious payment issues from the crews with the company after operating the other 2 of them for haj.
Seems the crews were stuck in JED for a while also.
Talked to a few of them there, no one really knew the reason why the aircraft was on hold for weeks.

OD-ZEE was parked in VVI since March 2007.
Did the last flight from Madrid on this one, then the ACMI company we were flying for LAB went down the tubes.
Airplane was in excellent shape back then.
