G-LGIS and G-SAYE

It is reported in the Guernsey Press that a composite a/c is to be made up from the two second hand Aurigny Dorniers (G-SAYE and G-LGIS). I wonder what is behind this? G-LGIS went to Oberpfaffenhofen on 3 September and hasn't returned and G-SAYE hasn't been in service since I think 4 September. G-SAYE isn't really suitable for Aurigny as it can't take a full passenger load with their luggage as a Do228-200 (500 kg lower MTOW than G-LGIS and 700 kg lower than G-OAUR), so maybe it does make sense to use the best bits of both a/c to make a single one. If they are doing this, I'm surprised that G-SAYE hasn't also gone to Oberpfaffenhofen.
