Fed up with having dozens of abandoned aircraft just lying around, one African nation is putting together an auction to get rid of its aviation junk. The Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) has announced it is flogging off 73 planes which are sitting around taking up valuable space at a variety of airports across the country. KAA reportedly contacted all the registered owners of the aircraft, warning that if they planes were not claimed they would be auctioned off. With 73 planes set to be sold, it seems many owners were unwilling or unable to retrieve their aircraft. This isn't the first time that Kenya has tried to clear away unwanted aircraft.
