......And remember juvenile arrests/convictions do not get entered into any data system.......

I'm sure there are plenty of guys who have lied about status offenses to the airlines and thought they were too petty to matter then got booted from class. What I guarantee is that none of these offenses occurred when the person was under 18.

This forum remind me of the time on officer.com forums that I got into an argument with a cop from DC who was so sure that all airline pilots made at least $80,000 as a 1st year FO. He was an expert on that topic as much as you think you’re an expert on criminal law.
