Is it true that there is not enough "parking" for all the aeroplanes in the world?

I remember hearing that there was not enough room for every plan to be grounded at the same time, which got me thinking - is that true??

    Urban legend, and a strange one at that. It would be kind of silly to build more airplanes than places to put airplanes.

    Question two is not even worth considering, what a stupid thing to say. Of course they can change their mind about it later if they want to. Question one - Win or lose in *what way* exactly? How can you even measure what is a win and what is a loss? Besides, Pascal's wager is not a phrase or saying like 'no true Scotsman'. It is a real idea, a fallacious one at that, but my point is we don't just say it randomly. Look it up.

    No. Every plane in the US was grounded on 9/11-9/12 and they still had plenty of room.

    well if you took most of those planes and pool ski's and platoons on them you could start llanding them in snow and water, then u could land all the planes.
