That is kind of my point. I'm suggesting that the problem may be that an initial positive (caused by electical interference.) may lead to arrest and a blood test under caution. I dont know how long a blood test takes to come back with the results of an alcohol test, but even if its 48 hours then thats long enough to have your flights cancelled, passengers incovenienced and your face plastered (sic) across the news of the screws.

I would say I in no way condone any form of drinking and driving/train operating or flying. Nor do I have any knowlege of the specific circumstances surrounding these cases.

If you were faced with even a nagging doubt as to the possible result of a blood test and the airline was saying if you resign you keep your pension if you fight this and create more bad publicity for the airline you get nothing, what would you do?
