I have just re read the entire thread. No one has said he is guilty, not once.
Try reading it again more slowly.

he should damn well know better. If he wasn't caught ... blah blah blah.

Here we go again! This guy should be ok no matter how drunk he was. He can always use the "I was reporting sick on the radio" defence or the "I was going to report sick before V1" defence. Should not be a problem.

Thank god for the Security staff!

it was a foolish and iresponsible thing to do

the Security staff do seem to be very competent at assessing the fitness of crews to fly though don't they? Shame the crews aren't!

There may be more but they'll do.
It's funny how people who don't know the first thing about flying and people who got a chip about pilots always come out of the woodwork to give us the 'benefit' of their opinions on these threads.

The "expressions of hope that, IF he is found guilty, there should be serious sanctions" ain't much better.
Beats me how anyone can say "I hope he looses his license, permanently" or "I hope they throw the book at him" if he's found guilty when even if he guilty nobody knows if he was a fraction over or way over, and they don't know anything about the guy.
