Fleet Commonality

I have all the airplane of a certain type for sale, but every time one goes for a C-inspection (removed from sale), this plane type is added to commonality. There is no sheduled flight. I assumed that planes no shedule is not counted to commonality? Bug?

Added exception to fleet commonality calculations: If the fleet group has more than 1 aircraft in total, AND all of them are for sale, except for one-two aircraft (which are not for sale), AND those particular planes are in maintenance AND have zero routes, then they do NOT count for fleet commonality. This (rare) case happens when you are selling your entire fleet in the used market, but need to keep the C/D checks valid. Previously the single plane in maintenance of the otherwise inactive entire fleet would have created commonality costs even though the fleet was not in operation, and change is made to not create unnecessary costs of a fleet that you do not actually operate.

From the manual:
------
Fleet commonality costs are not applied to fleets that are considered temporarily idle, which helps facilitate aircraft leasing and brokerage operations.

A fleet type is considered idle (and exempt from commonality costs) if both of the following conditions are met:
No aircraft of the fleet type are assigned to any active routes.
The oldest aircraft in the fleet type was delivered no more than 45 game days ago.
This grace period ensures flexibility for airlines adding or returning fleet types without incurring immediate costs.

Did you put the aircraft up for maintenance manually? In that case the plane is taken off from sale and is counted into the fleet normally.
