Don't know if there are many convictions. The FAA doesn't have to go
to that length, they can levy civil penalties and pull the pilot and
medical certificates without having to go through any criminal action.
This certainly happens, a number of unreported DUI's have ended up
that way I know.


Are those civil penalties part of the public record, i.e. is it possible to
get an idea of the range of penalties levied, what the circumstances were,
etc?

Thanks
