Grounding

Grounding is the process of removing an aircraft from service and preventing it from flying. This can be due to various reasons such as safety concerns, maintenance issues, or regulatory requirements. Grounding can be temporary or permanent depending on the severity of the issue. During grounding, the aircraft is inspected, repaired, and tested before it is allowed to fly again. Grounding can have significant financial implications for airlines as it can result in the cancellation of flights and loss of revenue. It is a critical safety measure that ensures the safety of passengers and crew.
