Do you ever engage brain before approaching keyboard?
'Police drag drunken BA pilot from controls of airliner.
ARRESTED IN THE COCKPIT'
is how the Mail on Sunday reported this 'Exclusive' story.
That set the tone for an article which shames modern 'journalism'. Put on the front page to shock and sell papers, but not to inform us truthfully of newsworthy world happenings.
IF the pilot was breathalysed and was asked to take a blood test, then fair enough. He was almost certainly NOT 'dragged from the controls.'
The kind of alcohol level we are talking about has nothing to do with 'drunkenness' or ability to drive or fly, but the limits to which a scientific instrument can apply the thought police policies of modern living. A zero limit sentences pilots, and pilots only it seems, to becoming tee-total or finding a new job.
What kind of world is it in which a once respected team of professionals can no longer live a normal life and exercise professional judgement over this issue?
