A lot of ignorant people jump on the band wagon and shake their heads saying that pilots being over 0.02% is a safety issue,
…while pilots at the end of a legally allowable 14 hr day can be suffering from fatigue that causes them to act as if they were over 0.08% blood alcohol level. (current legal limit = 0.02%)
…and that is meant to be fine! We must respect the law, but we should still question it.
How about some consistency from anyone out there who wants to preach on this and wave the safety card?
