New Information
 
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.

Compared to the 6000+ and growing list of Airbus narrowbodies, yeah, they really do.

Your stealing my job...I’m the one that spreads dumb rumors, not you...

But speaking of dumb rumors this one takes the cake. Why the heck would Spirit operate an airline with two different fleet types that are of the same capacity....

An 800 isn’t a Max. Boeing may have remaining 800 slots they’re trying to get rid of. It’s all fantasy until the first one shows up in sharpie yellow, but not out of the realm of possibility.

I know that fool, I was speaking to the section of him saying "boeing really needs this" which is as stupid as a statement gets. Go re-read and then they again.

Boeing may not need to sell MAX’s, but they may have other production slots they need to shed themselves of before going all Max, fool.
