Only after the socio-economic transformations of 1989, local authorities began to carry out an inventory of the so-called "Regained Territories". Official letters regarding the legal owner of K\u0119trzyn Airport started circulating. The Ministry of National Defense completely got rid of the rights to the facility. The K\u0119trzyn Commune, as the sole owner, put the airport up for sale. K\u0119trzyn airport, as one of the few in Poland, found volunteers relatively quickly. There were four private persons.<\/p>\n
In 1998, as a result of a tender, Wilamowo Airport was purchased by private individuals. New owners on September 4, 1998, a founding meeting of the new institution was organized – "Aeroklub Krainy Jezior". Already on September 18, 1998, the Aero Club of the Republic of Poland positively considered the application to reactivate the K\u0119trzy\u0144ski Aero Club, under the new name "Aeroklub Krainy Jezior". The main owner, Mr. Stanis\u0142aw To\u0142wi\u0144ski, took over 55 percent of the property. The other three owners each took over 15 percent.<\/p>\n
