TL;DR


For anyone still wondering "where is ALPA", it looks they'll be in FLL and MCO having coffee with pilots next week

So there ya go, show up and have a face to face instead of whining on the internet

Hard work doesn’t give you genetics that provide being born non-mentally disabled, or being born into a family that cares and provides for you enough to get to a point that you are able to work hard. If you are able to work hard, be grateful that you were born into that situation. None of us picked where we were born, that was luck.

Not that we are above it, but it seems United is getting serious attention from the FAA. That is not a good look.

no one’s house is strong my friend. But I’d be willing to bet ours isn’t as weak as, some, believe it is.

well, this comment didn’t age very well did it? They can’t even give type rides or use ANY future deliveries at the moment.

Spirit is literally going bankrupt and their big plan for making some money this year is PW money, which still hasnt happened, and probably wont happen without a bankruptcy judge involved. Hope im wrong, but i dont see how united's present situation compares at any level to Spirit's impending existential reckoning?

mercy, you’ve already nailed the last nail in the coffin haven’t you? The only thing left is the burial? Are you one of the CEOs? You have to be in order to have so much inside information?
no one said that our situation was better than United, no one said that united situation was much worse than ours. The only thing that was said, was, don’t throw stones if you live in a glass house. We’re all dealing with our fair share of problems right now. And I don’t think our Glasshouse is as weak as what others make it out to be. I certainly do not feel it to be as gloom and doom as you seem to make it. I as well hope you’re wrong.

seems like it’s factual , stock price at 4 dollars and change .only a matter of time . But sure let’s compare spirit to a legacy . I wonder if United does training out of an FBO as well .
