cxorcist,
You obviously know as little about these pills as you do about the pilot involved in the aforementioned friendly fire incident, and the reason his court-martial held him responsible rather than the pills he was prescribed. Then again, I did notice you tend to disregard evidence about other topics about which you falsely claim proper knowledge, so this is not surprising.
Uppers and downers are in widespread use by military pilots today, and have been for a long time.
