UPS to ground 9% of its airline fleet after plane crash
UNITED Parcel Service said it will ground its McDonnell Douglas MD-11 planes, accounting for about 9 per cent of its fleet, after a crash this week.
“Out of an abundance of caution and in the interest of safety, we have made the decision to temporarily ground our MD-11 fleet,” the company said in a statement.
“We made this decision proactively at the recommendation of the aircraft manufacturer,” it said, adding that contingency plans are in place to ensure it can continue to serve customers. BLOOMBERG
