quoting Capt'n Dick.

After months of going “to and from” we have suddenly been contacted by Bankstown Airport Limited who have said that they have just worked out that the Lease conditions they provided were for land-side buildings rather than air-side buildings.
I'm no legal eagle, but have a little experience in commercial leases..as the lessee...fighting to keep my own intact, fight to get keys to the new locks, fighting charges i don't have to pay. I learnt a lot..aided and abetted by a Lawyer who specialises in Commercial Tennancy....his charges for advice and direction to me were definatley proportional to the number of trophies his car won...but i digress...............

I read the above quote as being pretty much verbatim of the response from BAL. The part that I have bolded is what picked up my eyebrows.

It stands to reason, that BAL has 2 types of tennant, Air Related, and Non Air.
The needs of the 2 different types of tennant are so many worlds apart, that a single standard lease document couldn't be used to serve both tennant types without a lot of cross out sections.
The documents would be immediately identifiable to even the dumbest in our gene section at first glance.

I call PUSS! BAL tried to pull a shifty on Dick and give themselves room to remove his taxiway with no recourse.

I see no reason for BAL or any other operator to generate individual specific leases for each client. They would all be generic, with the only changeable factor being the dates and amounts.
