According to AVweb, John V. Salamone was the drunk pilot who flew through
controlled airspace near Philadelphia on Jan. 15. The FAA alleged that the
pilot endangered the lives of others and forced diversions of several
airliners. His breathalyzer was .13 alcohol level. The FAA has revoked his
certificate.

Apparently this guy was a solid citizen who had never done anything like
this before. Makes you wonder what happened to him.
