I just don't see a legacy or even SWA wanting NK as a whole. Obviously I do not make any decisions greater than, "start two or single engine taxi?"

true. you should put a direct call into Franke and let him know that his latest moves make no sense.

Possibly everyone’s opinion comes from there biases of where they are in there career

Guys with CJOs or who have left think its over for spirit

Guys who are sticking around hope spirit will be fine

truth be told no one knows

If past performances predict future results, current Spirit management could screw it either way

Attention all Spirit barnacles! The USS Spirit Ship is soon to be dry docked and scrapped. Threatening a sinking has not worked on you, unlatch while you still have time you lazy DFW invertebrates!
