It’s bad no doubt but I don’t think as bad as he makes it out to be. According to this article the worst is by 2026 and less aircraft than he states. The turn around time is still estimated around 400 days, not 800. Unless he has better information? I’m not saying I’m completely right here since the situation is fluid.
This info came from SPA. 2026 isn’t the worst, 2027 is. Spirit was suppose to get 12 engine bay slots this year, Pratt gave them 4. 800+ days now.
