They have the worst planes in the air. He’s a hero for just getting the thing up and back down again. Not gonna fact check and never flown on em. I imagine this is correct though

These things don’t happen when you take Amtrack to see deer and deer stands. I’ve never heard of the stuff but my neighbor swears he spotted some horse bermuda from an Amtrak train one time. I’m stripping my yard next year and laying down horse Bermuda.

I let one loose a few years ago in my moms new Explorer. Her punishment for me was booking my return trip from SD on Spirit. She said it was to make me suffer like she did. So…spirit is equal to a medium fart in a midsized SUV.

Steez. Spirit has a young fleet of Airbus's. I guess you're saying Airbus is a bad aircraft? Had a friend that flew commercial aircraft for American and always referred to them as Scarebus! If its not Boeing, Im not going.

was flown by a good friend of mine. He was in the right seat, but still was one of the two flying it. Was this the dove hunting, moonshine drinking friend?

This is a quote from CNN about the flight: "All passengers on a Spirit Airlines flight from Tampa to Atlanta are safe after the breaks on the plane's landing gear ignited when it landed."
I think I know what happened. The plane had "breaks" instead of "brakes".

If its not Boeing, Im not going. we flew a a320neo from DFW to HNL and from Maui to DFW. Very nice planes especially for airbus.

Steez. Spirit has a young fleet of Airbus's. I guess you're saying Airbus is a bad aircraft? I’m saying they are the stripped down, cheap seats, no room having version of a real aircraft. I bet they fit an extra 10 rows of seats compared to an American, Delta, etc. And they charge for carry on luggage. Pretty soon they'll figure out how to turn those empty overhead bins into bunk seating. Still, $200 round trip flights to Vegas...

Probably more low hour pilots than some of the other carriers, rather than garbage aircraft. Nah. They pretty much learn to fly and date stewardess’ at American Eagle. Oh sheet Man you just committed a PC foul, they are called Flight Attendants. Repent and sin no more. 
GOD is good!
