Just curious. Why would anyone consider applying to Spirit now? First year pay is lower than what most senior RJ pilots make - right? Why would you want to work for your CEO onsidering his previous anti-pilot attitude at AirTran?

As brought up on another thread.....you guys really should target potential NHs with a concerted information campaign on why not to go to Spirit. That is what I'd be doing if I was your SPSC & Comm committee (given MEC blessing of course).
Between refusing to fly on your days off and no NHs to support the new Airbuses that are coming, the company would be totally screwed and I can promise you they'd come to the table ready to truly negotiate.

At some point in time one has to stop tucking their tail and go on the offensive. Tell me how that is a "job action"?
