NttPF.  I unofficially pledge to transfer a prop from myself to the
first player to provide a correct list of how many props the L+FD

The original intent of props was similar to that of Patent Titles,
i.e. useless beyond bragging rights.  That said, with the RBoA gone,
you could try amending the PBA to offer Pilots a similar advantage.

The PBA is anti-elitist, so this would never happen.

Also, I couldn't even get the PBA amended to get rid of the ridiculous
inflation; amending it to let ais523 get slightly better rates should
e rejoin the PBA seems fairly unlikely.

Props (or more specifically, the awarding of props) factor in to my
decisions to promote/demote players according to my policy.

Speaking of which, there's less than 48 hours during which you can
promote/demote other people and ensure that it happens before my May flips.
