617 was at the paint shop a couple days ago. It is now in Hamburg for the interior. Yes, the A319 is coming. A friend of mine did the acceptance flight in Shannon, Ireland, two weeks ago.

Still looking for anything in the rumor of Spirit doing actual interviews at the Vegas Job Fair. Anyone?
I highly doubt it, but I'll be there as well

That rumor probably came from the folks who run the job fair......

That rumor probably did come from them, I've just been studying so much, and reading so much, half the time I don't remember where I read something.

I spoke with someone in the know today. The mins are still 4000TT, exceptions are being granted for specific cases. He did not say what those were but I can only assume military and someone who has an in. of course this is subject to change. He is able to give his imput on the matter but someone else actually sets the requirements. He did say he has been very impressed with all of the new hires coming through and hopes it continues.

Cool. Guess I'm just under that number without a military conversion.
I noticed on the OBAP website there isn't any Spirit pilots as members, wonder why?

Hope that's a typo. There would be almost twice the FOs as captains.

I think we were all thinking the same, and the 425 mil Powerball, not asking much!

Just wondering. I've had an app in for over 6 months and went to the Chicago job fair and still the phone lays silent. I don't have any internal recommendations, but I'd be willing to buy some beer, wine, or whatever to get some.

I guess I'm just looking for some words of wisdom.

Thanks,
