Hi,

I received a message that one of my aircraft has been grounded due to age or poor condition. It is a Bombardier Q400 which is only 3 months old and done 379 landings since I bought it new. It is not due any C or D checks and is up to date with it's A and B checks. Any advice?

Thanks

I don't see any aircraft in your fleet with grounded status currently, nor there are any messages about such event in the airline inbox?

I think it said it under aircraft information when the health was shown as 45%. The grounded status has now gone and the health is up to 55%. I'm still wondering what would cause a new aircraft to have such low health as it has all it's A,B,C,D checks. Could I have somehow missed a B check and would that cause this issue? Thanks.

One thing what would come to mind is that it has flown without A/B checks in the schedule for a while?

Thats the only thing I can think of too. Thanks.
