Again, when are we likely to hear this news? Before the earnings report this week?
Spirit wants/needs to grow - but with end-of-production-line 737-800s? Really? Makes sense from a negotiating standpoint (Delta ordering playbook). Looking forward to hearing one way or another.
FWIW, I still think the CS300 makes more sense for underserved, midsized markets but I am open to being corrected... Bring on the news!!!

The CS300 is the best airplane for us on paper. However, can 'we forgot to include almost all of the CB reset procedures in the COM' Miramar leadership actually capable of bring another airframe online? I don't know the answer but just updating our fuel policy had more errors in it than the book of Mormon.

Spirit is on the cusp of a 150 plus 737-800 order. They are going to get this deal because of delays with Airbus and by playing the C series off Boeing to land this deal. Boeing may not let on but they really need this order. They are stretched out for a while but have had some cancellations from overseas carriers which is opening up the first 50 of the 73's going to Spirit.
Expect them to start arriving on property in the second quarter of 2019. Quarterly earnings call is on 4/26. Expect this announcement one or two days before the call.

I research a little on orders. According to Boeing’s website order book, they have 103 orders for the 737 to an undisclosed customer. Not sure if that means much, but interesting nonetheless. Also, Airbus has 29 A330’s on the order books for an undisclosed customer as well. The plot thickens!
Any order for us would be welcome no matter the aircraft type.
