So you keep espousing to Spirit pilots to leave and go to your regional airline in hopes that one day they will flow to what is really America West, which is basically a mature Spirit business plan.
Disclosure: I don't work for Spirit, or a regional. But from the outside your argument makes you look like an idiot.
