A newspaper reporter discovered that 41 commercial airline pilots in
Minnesota have had their car drivers' licenses revoked due to drunken
driving, yet they are still flying jumbo jets. - from the
Transportation section of www.odd-info.com
So are they commercial pilots, or commercial pilots who fly 747s? And
how many such pilots are there in total, for purposes of comparison?
It is a bit odd that the FAA has such strict medicals but still allows
pilots to take recreational drugs on a regular basis.
Yep, they do.
Don;'t like it, don;'t fly.
Oh wait, You don't
