Four days after a UPS MD-11 crash killed 14, the FAA grounded all MD-11 cargo planes due to a structural safety issue.
Four days after UPS Flight 2976 crashed in Louisville on November 4, 2025, killing 14, the FAA grounded all McDonnell Douglas MD-11 and MD-11F cargo planes for urgent inspections after the NTSB found the No.1 engine and pylon separated shortly after takeoff.
The FAA cited a structural issue that could compromise control, requiring repairs before flight.
Both UPS and FedEx had already grounded their fleets of 26 and 28 aircraft, respectively, following Boeing’s safety recommendation, and the transition to newer Boeing 767 and 777 models may now accelerate.
Western Global Airlines has parked most of its MD-11 fleet.
