You are WRONG. The first article clearly stated she was female. With the said, who cares if she was female or male? Alcohol issues can affect either.

Thank you for the Dean Martin/Foster Brooks memory lane bit.
Dean Martin could be exhibit A on society's change in attitude towards drinking. (and smoking for that matter).
In the 80's, I was going through new hire ground school at an airline that hosted "beer call" on Friday nights at a bar near the airport for us newbies. A few line pilots would drop by to hoist one with us.
My opinion of the practice is neutral, but can you imagine any airline doing so today?
The times changed in more ways than Dylan anticipated.

If you can’t complete a dry 3 day without constantly thinking about it, marking no dependence is a grey Class 1 application.

This piqued my interest. I'd never heard about it.
Worth a ChatGPT/Grok/Whatev summary for those interested in avoidable CFIT accidents.
Sobering. (In a non alcoholic sort of way)

Quite a few outlets published the pilots' gender, even my card-nerd site where I first saw the sad news.
Would gladly write the editors if I can find a link to the news that this was a "false positive." Welcome the good news that one of our own is OK.

I’m an old guy these days too. Fortunate enough to vacate the seat just short of 60. By choice. Substance dependency through nearly all of it. Definitely helps you learn the art of deception. Nowhere more than fooling yourself.
