Well not just that, the regional are in the cross hairs now more then ever. Not interested in United gave that number up in 05 at CAL. But we do have a 10 year CPA signed and that would make me 55. Internal recs are not a prob and plenty of flight time, Caribbean, Mexico and Glass. I've made two big booboos so far in this industry like not going to JetBlue there second year (used to work for Dave Barger) because of the CAL FT and waiting for the CAL FT don't want to make this my third.

Been pretty lucky otherwise, anyway its hard to give up money to do the same dam thing I do now! Dam I hate this industry!
Only two boo boos? You're one better than most of us '

If you really want to try Spirit, you'd better not wait any longer. A current new hire might be able to upgrade with the orders in place. Next years new hire might sit right seat a long time.
