Heathrow Director, as someone who has had to deal with the mess and heartache caused by stupid, selfish, drunken idiots I wholeheartedly agree with you. One death at the hands of one of these alcohol-fuelled people is one too many. The same also applies to those who drive under the influence of drugs. There is no excuse. It's not as though this was some little known regulation sneaked in thriugh the back door, it is well known and well publicised. Anyone who drinks and drives, flies, sails etc is a menace. How much more evidence to people need that alcohol, even in small quantities, affects judgement? I am well aware that people get away with this on a daily basis but that in no way justifies their actions.
Nigel, you owe HD an apology for your offensive name calling which was hardly professional behaviour.
