They’ll get binned or refitted where necessary.
Having to build and rebuild a whole bunch of them would be a great problem for the industry to have.

Planes come with a manual which has a list of things to do if you expect your aircraft to be sitting idle for a week/month/year and what you need to do afterwards before flying. It will be lots of extra work for ground crew but is basically BAU. Given returning to previous flight levels will take months or years it isn't going to be an issue.

It has been mentioned up thread somewhere, but how much of an issue is air safety going to be once/if things ever return to how they were before?

Presumably all these grounded planes are going to spring all kinds of leaks and defects.
