That's an additional 90 airframes without an order. I wouldn't be too concerned.
I've stated on at least two occasions that Spirit will grow to 270 airframes in the next five years. Apparently I was wrong. We're growing to 280 airframes in the next five years.
Jeff Thomson:
When you joined Spirit nearly seven years ago, you had the opportunity to build the finance function from scratch, just as the airline was expanding. As the now CFO, how has the finance team grown alongside the company’s own evolution from just 40 aircraft to 140? What role do you play in setting the company’s growth strategy?
Scott Haralson:
Growing a company more than 200% in about six years with sights on doubling again over the next five is difficult and complex.
