Are you asking us to make some up?
All of them to be repainted into the colours of budget airlines who will provide the crew training and maintenance through an innovative PFI sale and leaseback deal. Sponsorship will be allowed if your firm wants to send a personalised message to anyone you dislike through www.slot-em-all.com.
Crews will be based in Romania, and pay their own money to drive to meet the jets in Poznan, Poland when they're not off earning third party revenue for states at war, or non-state actors seeking a clue on when they're going to get bombed.
Does this help?

GK to close by 2013.
Airframes to relocate to Greece.
Airfield to be leased by Greece to NATO for a 'significant sum'; lease cheques to be made payable to Mrs A Merkel.
Or it could be what Squirrel said.

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

NATEX Shopping Curtailed
The German customs boys have been hanging around and checking people shopping at the NATEX. If you don't have an ID card for GK specifically (JFC Brussum doesn't count) they asked you to pay the VAT on the items you bought. You can return the items and skip paying the tax. True events!

AWACS at Geilenkirchen
Awacs-toestellen blijven aan de grond
De Awacs-basis in Geilenkirchen houdt alle toestellen voorlopig aan de grond. Bij de zeventien vliegtuigen is roest geconstateerd bij het neuswiel. Daardoor bestaat het risico dat het wiel bij de landing niet meer uitklapt. Een woordvoerder van de basis kon niet zeggen hoe lang de vliegtuigen noodgedwongen aan de grond blijven. De Awacs-toestellen zijn omgebouwde Boeings 707 met radar. Ze zijn allemaal meer dan 25 jaar oud.
From local paper today.......
States that the aircraft are grounded due to rust being discovered in the nosewheel landing bay which might prevent doors from opening. Spokesman could not say how long aircraft will remain on the ground. Mentions also that all aircraft are more than 25 years old.
