Spirit Airlines ceased operations on May 2nd after a 34-year run. It was sad to see the airline go under and I was a fan of its Big Front Seats (later First Class). Watching a yellow plane being ripped apart by construction equipment is even sadder.
@aviationbrk posted the above video of a spirit Airbus A320neo being scrapped for parts. The aircraft is only four years old and the dismantling is happening at Phoenix Goodyear Airport (GYR).
Anthony’s Take: Spirit’s fleet is being repositioned, returned, scrapped, and going to new homes. The yellow planes will only be yellow for a short time and then the airline (like so many others) will be a memory.
