Forgive my ignorance, but what's a Spirit plane?

Spirit Airlines. I see you OT baller. No low cost carrier for you.

Pretty sure if it got really close, it would have been shot down. This is no big deal.

I'm not a pilot, but is 8 miles "almost hitting a plane"?
Posted on 9/21/25 at 7:29 pm to KosmoCramer
It wasn’t at 50 mph.

A Spirit plane is certain to be about 85% Dem.
And the other 15% are on their first and last Spirit flight.

Was Norman Greenbaum the pilot?

It took three commands from the tower for the Spirit pilot to change course. Which kind of amplified the situation, appropriately or not.

A plane traveling 500 mph goes 7 miles in 30 seconds.

Reports are that the Spirit maintained the required separation, so.

You can hear the tower tell him to change course three times.
Posted on 9/21/25 at 7:32 pm to CatsGoneWild
That’s twice recently I believe. The other was AF1

Let's not attack the Spirit pilots too much, they probably were having to help break up a fight in the main cabin over some pretzels and some hairweave in somebody's way.
