My bet was for the next bid...seems I may have been wildly optimistic, but I'll gladly put my 20 on the bar of the winner's choice.

My money says it doesnt break 7000. The DC9 guys will jump all over it.

Wonder where Hawaiian is going to use all those new A321's, although the press release says west coast. I wouldn't bid the LAX base anytime soon. ;(

Here's a long article that is vaguely about Spirit Airlines and mostly about the so called "pilot shortage". It goes into a lot of detail and basically says, as we all know, there's no freaking pilot shortage.

Spirit Airlines' Growth: Reasonable, Risky Or Reasonably Risky? - Seeking Alpha

I guess the WSJ isn't above making up numbers to make a point apparently.

I'm sure WSJ didn't make up any numbers. They printed the numbers that Airlines for America and the RAA told them to print, without asking a single question.

I see Kit Darby got his comments in after the article.

I've seen a number of missed tackles, and he looks like he's just standing there on some plays.
I agree...totally overrated. The only reason they were undefeated is they never played anyone from the SEC!
