I actually went out there and snapped a few pictures earlier. I live under the approach path and seeing/hearing all these widebody planes is pretty surreal.

I think I read last week that Delta is going to ground around 300 planes. Where they'll be parked, I have no idea, plus that number could have changed just as rapidly as the pandemic is changing.

Most of the wide bodies are going to be in Arizona at the Air Park.
American is also parking nearly half their fleet.
