Just curious what you're ready to strike for? In the hiring thread you're telling everyone to accept bottom of the industry pay...

Strike for you guys to get the most Spirit is willing to pay. And if I'm still here. Otherwise. I'd try to help the rest of you.

Again, who are you to this group? Are you part of the pilot group or not? You encourage the pilots to accept bottom of the industry pay, refer to us as "you guys" and act like somehow your assistance to this group is a charity. If you aren't serious about helping this pilot group get the industry standard contract it deserves then please remain silent, but if you do in fact want to help don't treat it as something beneath you that you'll do if you happen to have time. This is an all-hands-on-deck situation and we need everyone to support industry standard and nothing less.

I suppose that depends on your definition of "crush" but our 1Q 2017 margin was 10.1% compared to 3.8% for American, 1.7% (that's one point seven) for UAL, 9.3% for DL and 12.3% for WN. So, only WN beat us and DL at least came close. Considering our operational challenges, I think our financial performance is pretty healthy.
