Etc...

P.S. No I don't have an interview, just looking for a friend thats optimistic.

The willfly information from 2000 is probably close, the 1999 info is about three generations of management ago and should not be taken as representitive.

I do not know what questions are asked in the interview. The written was taken from the ATP written with some 135 and 121 stuff thrown in. I hear that it's hard for a practicing pilot, and easy for wanna bees. By that I mean that it asks questions that are required knowledge, but not knowledge that is used by everyday pilots. I would personally much rather know that my new FO knows how to properly compute a manual w&b instead of having every possible transponder code memorized. Or be able to properly use an airport analysis to determine max weight for the TO instead of knowing the exact required climb gradient for the second segment, but I'm just a worker bee.

I don't usually help management dangle any carrots,

BUT I heard today that Spirit is very close to announcing a large purchase of Airbii. Rumor says we get 60, A320/A321's in five years. I still won't believe it till I see it, but it's getting harder and harder to disbelieve the rumors, especially when they come from people I trust.
Just remember our mottos; "Spirits got a long way to go, but hey, at least we're flying", and the ever popular, "just wait until our NEXT contract negotiations".

Seriously, even though I remain sceptical about massive hiring, get your resume in now. Having one on file can't hurt and Spirit is one of those places that could be a bird nest on the ground, so getting hired here may turn out to be a very good thing.

Good Luck to everyone
