https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2012569

carried out by;
Aerospace Human Factors Research Division and Human Research Facility, NASA-Ames Research Center Moffett Field, CA 94035.

And if you look at the links to 'similar experiments' on the right of the page here:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7980331
You'll find that in every one of the experiments alcohol impaired pilot performance.

Hope that helps.
