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 (pmail). I will review and forward them to Internet Brands staff for posting.

Also, while we are talking about past memos; I remember one a few months ago that said we would need 7000 pilots in the next decade and we were trying to figure out how we would train them all. Now in this memo that number has been reduced to 3500. What gives?

Through 2023 we have over 5200 Age 65 retirements scheduled. Not sure where SD's #'s are coming from.

Easy, we're only going to hire pilots that wear size 2XL uniforms.

It's because we had such great response to the RMA.
