Ya, trail by media ::) As I recall, the last "drunk" pilot arrested at Heathrow had just used mouth wash. Also the term drunk, what does that actually mean? Whilst I do not condone the guy, this drunk is not fit to fly, but this drunk is fit to drive a car :-?

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
