Notices
### It is against the APC Forum Rules to advocate any labor action which is not authorized by the RLA/NMB. This applies to ANY wildcat actions, including slowdown, work-to-rules, withdrawal of enthusiasm (WOE), sickouts, etc. It is irrelevant whether the union itself has anything to do with the action. Major unions have lost court cases and in one instance suffered severe financial damage in the process. Online posts, including anonymous posts and posts made here on APC, have been used in lawsuits against unions. Many major airlines are in negotiations at this time, and many are contentious. We have been contacted by major union legal teams regarding this issue. The rules here have not changed, but the enforcement will now result in a 30 day ban from APC for violations. Please don't sabotage your own union's efforts on your behalf.
### In order to submit updates to the APC Airline Profiles, please send updates directly to Rickair7777 via Private Message (PM). I will review and forward them to Internet Brands staff for posting.
### APC now features a variety of user badges, which can be optionally enabled as desired (USER CP / Left Side Bar / Badges). Some badges become available when certain metrics are met (ex. years registered).

You bet, part of our fuel sense program. Raising the gear handle as you start the roll gets you cleaner quicker too.

Lot of eyes out there in the modern world. Makes you reconsider what non-sole source is.
