Default APC Advert

I just noticed that it only seems to come up on the Cargo Forum

What do you do now after his affair?
How will you restore the trust?
Are you headed for a divorce?

I looked at some of the other forums here in APC and Cargo seems to be the only one where it comes up.

What the heck are you guys doing to be considered a target audience, or do they think the little missus knows your password?

I think the ads are inserted automatically, based on content of the forum. There must be something about what you cargo dogs talk about in there to cause that...

I hope we don't get barely-legal teen porn ads in the regional forum

I try looking at the ads from this perspective...there may be an issue that I or a fellow pilot may be dealing with at work or at home and don't know how to go about seeking solutions to the issue.

True pilots are in a class all by themselves when it comes to the profession, however, with anything else we are just like everyone else.

Download Firefox and add the Ad-Block-Plus add-on. Not only do I not see any ads on APC, but I don't see any ads on any website. It's awesome.

I don't think you will because the advertisers know that forum is a dead market. They realize regional pilots just have to open the cockpit door to find barely legal teens as part of the crew!

Default firefox browser

Firefox all the way- I would have left the Site a year ago if it weren't for how nicely FF cleans it up.

Is FF as fast as Google Chrome? The one time I tried it took so long I wanted to pull my hair out.
