Not as scary as ignorance and oh-this-is-so-terrible-something-must-be-done handwringing reactions which seems to be so in vogue.

Far too many people seem to equate 'being over the limit' with being wasted and a danger to world peace on par with Lex Luthor.

I bet the same people would demand their own shadow wear a hi-viz jacket, so it couldn't sneak up and scare them, if they could
I hope you are not a pilot!!

Scary my arse. When was the last time an airliner crashed in Western Europe/USA because the pilots were over the alcohol limit? What a load of bollocks.
Do you know? and even if this not happened it does n`t mean it canīt


In my opinion take control of a A/C with 300Pax (or whatever#) not 100 % alert are not professional and ii am shore the most pilots agree to that
