Yawn. I suspect more doctors kill people each year than pilots fly drunk. And I don't see people staying away from their doctors. Nor with the load factors at the moment do I see the average joe not flying in aircraft. But sure fill your days with reading tabloids and believing that aircraft are gonna fall out of the sky each day. Must be a time for a chemtrail discussion as well......

Is one to imply from your take note threat that a rampant poison of alcoholism exists in the pilot body? Pray tell

Do they operate while drunk ... If yes you have a point, If not you can yawn in front of a mirror

Let this be a stark warning to all the pilots on here - it's not okay to consume three small bottles of vodka before reporting for duty.

I think this discussion has really gone as far as it can. Rules exist in most walks of life, in this case 1 individual messed up.
