It’s okay...facts are irrelevant on APC.

In short, spirit being the surviving brand when merged with top gun is referring to a step in the middle of the process. Not the final product.
new call sign goose? Maverick?Originally Posted by TOGALOCK
The Spirit name may very well survive, but a lot of people have read into (or simply don’t understand) that filing. Indigo set up another holding company, “Top Gun”. In a nutshell there will be two mergers taking place. During the merger process Spirit will be merged with the Top Gun entity owned by Indigo. Indigo will then own both spirit and frontier. Both airlines will continue to operate independently during this time and Spirit will continue to operate under the name spirit (surviving brand) after it is merged with top gun. Ultimately Spirit/top gun will be merged with Frontier. What name will survive at that point is anyones guess. Who knows, it may be neither and we will rebrand under a completely new name. IMO it will be based on far more factors than just the fact that F9 will be 51.5%.In short, spirit being the surviving brand when merged with top gun is referring to a step in the middle of the process. Not the final product.

I have absolutely no facts to back any of this up. It’s purely just a hunch on my part.
i doubt that only because we have more painted airplanes therefore it would be cheaper to rebrand fewer airplanes.Originally Posted by TOGALOCK
It’s definitely the better known. As for tarnished…? I don’t think it’s any worse off than Frontier. If I were a betting man, I would say it would be some iteration of the Frontier livery with the animals, but keeping the Spirit name. Basically like Continental did with UAL. Keep the Continental globe, but keep the UAL name.I have absolutely no facts to back any of this up. It’s purely just a hunch on my part.
Spirit has a dog 💩 reputation but we are very well known.

I flew her a lot in another job. She still looked fine in person, and the bubbly person you see on screen is her in real lifeOriginally Posted by TOGALOCK
At this point I’d usually make a comment that I would be her chair and she could sit on me any day, but time and plastic surgery have not been on that fine lady’s list of best friends…

Sorry, I think I missed a sentence in there that would have correctly implied the answer. The answer is “Animals on the Tail.” JetSmart, Franke’s 2-year old airline, also has animals on the tails.Originally Posted by Halon1211
its a discount airline? They pay their pilots less?
[QUOTE=MtnPeakCruiser;3374388]I’ll just leave this here and see if you see anything familiar. I myself just noticed it when I was browsing over JetSmart’s website.

P.S. JetSmart was inaugurated by Bill Franke only two years ago.
American bought into JetSmart summer 2021.
CHICAGO, July 29 (Reuters) - American Airlines (AAL.O) said on Thursday it is proposing acquiring a minority stake in budget carrier JetSMART in South America as part of a tie-up aimed at fueling growth in the region as demand recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic.

There are *********s in every pilot group, thankfully they are few and far between. Likewise, NK guys are looking forward to work with the F9 guys.Originally Posted by Mooneyguy
I’ll assume this is just sarcasm. If there is one good thing at F9 it’s our pilot group. We have a great bunch of people, and honestly I’ve not flown with a single person yet who isn’t looking forward to working with our NK peeps to make this place even better.
Word is that the names Spirit and Frontier will die...they want a fresh start.
”Harmony Air Lines” (like how Delta does it) will be the new name.
it will be a Metallic soft pink color.
