    Default Ground Running

    Esta en la oracion en donde pueden encontrar el termino que no desconozco: "Early detection of problems that could lead to unscheduled aircraft downtime, expensive repairs and ground running"

    Creo que es funcionamiento de los motores en tierra pero no estoy segura del todo.
    Me lo podrian confirmar?
