All in the 'new livery'? I quite liked the 'silver bullet' livery, looked rather sharp on the jet.

I actually like the new paint job better... And yes, I'm straight

Deliveries set for 2015-2017 per Yahoo! article.

The 10 previously ordered aircraft that Spirit has opted to re-specify as A321s will be scheduled for delivery in 2017 and 2018.

All 30 of Spirit’s A321s, to be delivered between 2015 and 2018, feature Sharklet wing-tip devices and will be the first A320-family jets in North America to feature Airbus’ Space-Flex cabin option, which optimizes use of the available space at the very back of the aircraft

I almost feel like a sell out, I'm actually excited at work

Mo planes = Mo betta!


Growth feels great for the future.

Yeah I suppose it's grown on me some what. I J/S on NK quite a bit and the crew usually share the sentiment. When seen at the gate together the prior scheme stands out but in unison, the new livery holds its own. I like that rendering of the A321 with sharklets.

Screw you! Must be nice, some of us are still stuck at Surejet Ha!

The new paint job stands out pretty good, too. I live/work in a Spirit base and see the A321 once in a while, but not a fan on the silver paint, I think the new A321 will look great. I think they have a lot of expansion and new cities planned for the future.

So can someone summarize all the orders in total airframes ?
