Lots of passenger planes have been flightless for months as a result of travel restrictions.

It would be interesting to see how long this particular bird has been sitting on the ground.

It is an interesting question. According to AVHerald the tail number for this plane is N772UA:

... so it looks like it’s been flying at least for the last week.

It has not been grounded. The last flight was earlier this morning from Chicago (ORD) to Denver.
