They're talking about Spirit AeroSystems, which I believe is an unrelated company that just coincidentally also happens to be terrible at what they do.
I literally thought Spirit airlines too. Sometimes there's partnerships where a segment might be operated by a smaller regional company so thought that was the case at first glance.
Spirit actually has the newest fleet of planes.
