I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Accepting that Jane is right about cognitive function, he makes the point that active pilots should not drink but I think we are working on the hypothesis that these were not active pilots in the sense that they were on the flypro in the near term.

There is the other possibility that they were also flying supervisors and in that capacity may not have been the sharpest tools in the box the next day.

That, I submit, is the greater worry.
