About 42 years ago I had an experience with pot. I did not smoke it. But I
was at a party with a very hot young woman I wanted to nail. Her
girlfriend's boyfriend was high as a kite. The two girls asked me to talk
to him and get him to stop and go home.
He wasn't uncoordinated, but he was "out of time sync" about 2 minutes. If
I asked him a question, there was no reaction for over a minute, then he
would respond.
I can just see it now, a pilot really two minutes behind the airplane. From
my limited experience with drunks, I have never seen such a time shift.
The only thing I can say is, neither alcohol or recreational drugs should be
around airplanes, cars or guns or any other machinery. I once told a judge
that all drugs should be legal for adults and anyone providing drugs to
children should be executed. Intoxication and operating any machine should
be punished. But the drug should be legal so the black-market and the
associated crime would go away.
BTW, the judge dismissed me from the jury when both the defense and
prosecutor objected to me being seated.
