I have read your other posts so please do not patronise me. As for your hypothetical scenario, if the guy has problems and the way he is dealing with them is to drink close to duty periods, he should not be flying. I am not arguing with anyone here that a pilot under the influence of drink should not be punished and his licence removed.
All I have said is that I feel sorry for the pilot in question because he (if guilty) has made a grave error and the ramifications for his career and family life will be far reaching.
You yourself have admitted you have sailed close to the wind and the alcohol limit now is very stringent. There for the grace of God go all of us. If it happened to you, you too would have my sympathy despite the fact humanity and pity are attributes you obviously reject.
