You can deny this, but you'll be lying, and you know it.

Previously, the status of each airplane was shown to demonstrate the lie; those airplanes weren't simply resting between flights, and you know it. Your inference of FedEx's fleet, which is well maintained, is a straw-man fallacy: another lie.

Where are your airplanes, then?
OK let me debunk your hard work collecting data:

N411SN, enroute to Incheonl from Chicago on August 27, diverted into Anchorage and sat there until October 15, when it was ferried to Shreveport. It hasn't moved since. Must be one of those fed-ex quality ships that's just waiting for the right moment, a few hours of down time before it flies the return leg, right? Has undergone a heavy check which required some additional time to finish.
N412SN is sitting in Huntsville, presumably airworthy, relatively speaking. Yes it is !
N415JN has been sitting in Incheon for three days. WGA airplanes don't sit in Incheon unless they're broken. You are wrong on this one. Times have changed and ICN is a maintenance base now, performing A checks and other necessary items.
N435KD is the dearly departed, most likely to never be seen again. Still counting it as one of the fleet, though. Not sure what the plan is.
N512JN is airborne, enroute to LAX. Yeaaaahhhhh 👍🏼
N513SN is sitting at LCK, though it had an air turnback at Anchorage four days ago. Air turnback due to tire failure on takeoff. Tire failures do happen to other airlines too, just in case you needed a reminder.
N542KD is at TPE; heavy check Yes ! C checks are mandatory, right ?
N543JN has been sitting at LAX for three days. Scheduled ground time.
N545JN is at TPE; heavy check. 542 is almost done, so it’s 545’s turn. Remember: C Checks are mandatory.
N546JN had two diversions toward the end of December, and has been sitting in Shreveport since December 31. Undergoing heavy maintenance.
N581JN has been sitting in Shreveport since March 27. Scheduled maintenance.
N630SN is a ghost, but still part of that "fleet". Not sure of the status.
N783SN is on the ground in Chicago, having arrived today. Going like gangbusters, it is. Yeeeeaaahhh 👏🏼
N784SN arrived in Shreveport from Frankfurt on April 20th; destined to be the latest jewel in the fleet, if it does't get raped for parts in the meantime, like so many others. Latest Lufthansa bird. Will require to undergo conformity, just like 781, 783 and 804. Conformity does take time and is a requirement just in case you were not sure.
N799JN has been sitting in Incheon for three days. See N415JN. Read my comment on 415. Same applies to 799.
N804SN has been sitting at Ft. Myers since May 13. Conformity. Read under 784.
N258SN is enroute to Hong Kong. It was recently out of service in Shreveport. Yeeeaaahhh 👍🏼
N344KD just arrived in Anchorage. This is indeed great news !
N356KD has been sitting in Anchorage since June 2nd. Nasty bird strike requiring parts and time. Bird strikes do happen, even to other airlines !
N452SN is enroute to Chicago at the moment. Best news of the day 👋🏼
You forgot our shining star 781 !
That's 20 airplanes on the roll, with 13 unavailable. WGA is having a banner day presently, with only 65% of the fleet grounded. So yeah..just like FedEx, right? Of the MD11 fleet, that's only four operational airplanes. WGA claims a fleet of 14 MD11's, which makes that a 28% operational fleet...or 72% out of service.

This isn't a special project of mine; you brought it up (again), so a quick visit to flightaware and flightradar24 is something anyone can do, quickly enough.

You were making a comparison between WGA's fleet, and Federal Express. Please, don't let me stop you. Go on.

Explain your wages offered in comparison, too. Remember, YOU introduced it. Please, go on.

If there's nothing intelligent to add, please keep throwing out non-sequitur references to irrelevant threads, or keep trying to muddy the water by introducing Seinfeld and the TV guide; it's what one does when one has nothing to offer, and it speaks volumes about you. Deny, dismiss, diminish. Which one will you try next? You were saying?
