SPIRIT’S NEAR-NEW AIRBUS JETS BEING SCRAPPED Spirit Airlines’ shutdown has left dozens of Airbus aircraft on the market, but some of its nearly new A320neos are being dismantled for their Pratt & Whitney GTF engines. Two former Spirit A320neos, just 3½ and 4 years old, were sent to a scrapyard in Arizona and stripped for parts. The engines have become so valuable amid the global GTF shortage that, in some cases, they are worth more than keeping the entire aircraft.
