Portions of FedEx's MD-11 fleet are starting to return to service after months of inspections and repairs prompted by the deadly UPS plane crash in Louisville.

FedEx has been preparing to resume MD-11F operations after the type was grounded following the November 2025 crash of UPS Flight 2976 at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport (SDF). The UPS MD-11F crashed shortly after takeoff when the left engine and pylon separated from the wing.

FedEx is telling pilots and other personnel to get ready for the return to service of the MD-11 freighter as federal regulators could soon approve a Boeing fix for the grounded aircraft. The post FedEx prepares to reactivate grounded MD-11 fleet in May appeared first on FreightWaves.
