Close, but not exactly. Seldom do airlines mothball aircraft any more -- they sell them out right to aircraft brokers, other airlines, or dismantellers. Others are simply returned to their lessors. The result is that airlines seldom have any aircraft in storage that can be brought back into the fleet when demand changes.
