The ANO makes it an offence for a crew member of an aircraft, an air traffic controller or a licensed maintenance engineer to be under the influence of drink or drugs so as to impair his capacity to carry out his aviation related functions. (See articles 13(8), 65(2) and 96.)
I've not read all of the info, but does anyone know if there is anything in there to cover unlicensed engineers.
Where I work, a lot of tasks are carried out by very experienced fitters, and over signed by LAE's.
I was wondering what would be the legal implications on the LAE, if the fitter turned out to have been drinking.
