I think a fleet swap was the suggested prerequisite for the great deal on the MAX’s unless you’re suggesting an Airbus order and Spirit taking the leap to wide bodies.

People at HQ said a fleet swap is very unlikely. If they order Boeing it’ll be a dual fleet.

That probably makes the least sense for all involved unless it’s a radically different tube than the 320 family.

This place can’t handle wide bodies. They will try to have us show up and go after having us look at a read file on NAT and ETOPS.

All we’re doing is putting more gas in, I don’t see the problem.
