After that they can be issued passes for longer period i.e. one month. - Thus parting out at MRO hangar may be very convenient and better option as the passes are issued by Hangar owner (e.g. Air India) so that there is no loss of man days and efforts in getting passes renewed every third day. - Further, it will be also very easy to temporarily store the items after part out, pack and ship out the parts as movement of carpenter; trucks etc. will be very easy. - In any case, it may be noted that as per the Clause 13.12 of the Seller's Terms and Conditions already uploaded in the MSTC website, the successful buyer is expected to remove the Aircraft from the airport within 21(Tewnty One) days from the date of issuance of the Sale Certificate. 4.5 Will there be any legal tangles once I buy the aircraft and will some one stake claim that they have rights on the aircraft? - There will be no legal tangles upon purchase of the Aircraft as the auction process has been initiated as per the orders of the Hon'ble Bombay High Court enclosed in the e-auction catalogue.
