UPS and FedEx are grounding their MD-11 fleets "out of an abundance of caution" after a deadly crash at a UPS hub in Kentucky.
The cargo airlines said they had taken the step to immediately ground the fleets on the recommendation of the plane’s manufacturer.
The delivery companies confirm MD-11 planes have been temporarily grounded as the death toll in Louisville rises to 14.
