Pilots face drinking charges
A Phoenix-bound jetliner was preparing for takeoff with 124 passengers aboard when officials called it back to the terminal and arrested both pilots for allegedly being drunk in the cockpit.
when I was a bartender, some of our very best customers were pilots. They drank a lot and they also tipped well. I was amazed that their voracious drinking was received [even in a bar] so nonchalantly. Since the same pilots were in the bar several times a week, and consuming massive quantities of alcohol---if they weren't flying under the influence, they certainly were hung over while flying. Now, which one is worse?
