While sipping my morning coffee, I decided to do some simple research into the user posts to determine what is actually going on with this poll.

I only analyzed the No votes. I made four groups - Spirit pilots, not spirit pilots, undetermined, zero post counts.

Of the yes voters:
Spirit Pilots - 53
Not Spirit Pilots - 43
Undetermined - 11
Zero Post Counts - 11

Lots of non spirit pilots representing from:
Frontier, Hawaiian, Delta, Fedex, American, Southwest, Alegiant, UPS, Jetblue, Alaskan, Virgin, United, and various regionals.

Frontier and Delta pilots tied for most non-spirit votes in our poll.

If we figure the ratio of only the obvious pilots, 55% are spirit pilots, we can add 12 votes from the zero count and undetermined numbers.

Actual APC Aye or Nay:

Aye - 52 or 44%
Nay - 65 or 56%


Quick and dirty for the future: subtract 45% from the No votes

Again, I didnt analyze the yes votes. I dont think other airline pilots would have an hidden agenda to put in a yes vote.
