I learned you could adjust the mixture of a 152 through the oil service access door and then secure it with chewing gum. Came in very handy later in life.

All those articles are a result of the original Bloomberg article's 'insider source familiar with the matter'.
I wonder if that insider source also pitched a United and American merger earlier this week?
Seems like speculative articles like this come out right when Spirit's facing crunch time. Last time was when continued DIP funding was in doubt, articles came out saying other airlines were expecting a shutdown and getting ready to increase capacity.

Spirit executives didn’t even deny it though.. they just said no comment. If it wasn’t true and I hope it’s not, then you’d think they would have said so.
