Let me get this right. The pilot has a technical problem, demanding considerable concentration and probably a little perspiration, and some aggrieved passenger can get a policemann to breathalyse him????

Someone tell me this is not true!!

I dread to think what will haappen after my next sim check!

Will I get breatyhalysed after every "non standard" event in future? Does the policeman even know what is "normal" and what is not in avaition? On what basis of suspicion was this guy tested?

Pathetic. The law is really an ass.


So how about this - let's remove the fun and games before it gets going. How about a machine at check in. You blow, get cleared for the duty you are about to start and then all these scalp hunters can go get lost...
