Hi Nedskid, thanks for your reply and the positive words. I agree with you about other fish in the sea, but you guys are the only fish in the sea that have such a sunny outlook, expansion, fairly expected upgrade time, good work rules, as far as I'm concerned you guys are the only fish I want to hook into. I also agree with you regarding knowing the right person on the inside, and that's the crux of my problem. I don't know any person let alone the right person, I was wondering what it would take for a Spirit pilot to recommend a pilot, perhaps walk in the resume and recommendation letter to the HR department or any department that will call and schedule an interview. I am willing to fly out and meet with a Spirit pilot, such as yourself, to get to know me and be able to personally and comfortably recommend. I hope I am not sounding desperate but I feel like I don't want to leave any stone unturned on my quest to be with Spirit Airlines. Once again thanks for your upbeat words and looking forward to any help you might be able to manage.

Matti
