Its possible and likely there are many aircraft undergoing maintenace and without those numbers this spreadsheet is meaningless.

Are you volunteering to look up, track, and add all that information in this spreadsheet? If not, then maybe don't insult the time others spend on aggregating all the data they do track.
I am (and no doubt many others are) grateful that people like
LoganFlyer take the time and track the overall fleet in a single place because it is interesting information.
BostonPlanesAndTrains pasted all the subfleet threads where you can spend your time digging on exactly which tails are actually flying vs in mods or maintenance. (where many others also spend their time tracking all that information).
