That’s a strong allegation (and a lot of contempt for your fellow pilots), considering there is a link to a news article.

Why use "pilot"? Why not say "Crewmember"? Why stigmatize pilots? And do we know it was an actual birthing person or someone that identified as female when asked what gender they prefer to use? Did the people that arrested them use the proper pronouns? If not this could be a hate crime.

Don’t they use some kind of sniffing device over there? One of the previous euro net perps blew well below US dui thresholds. Swedes are known to hit it pretty hard.

Not sure that you need to get ****faced drunk to blow a .01, even outside of 8 hours.

Doesn't matter as Delta has a zero tolerance policy that you have zero alcohol in your system. Not 100% sure and I'm sure someone could chime in with more info, but is HIMs still an option in this case, or is it only a before-the-fact option?

Co. policy is one thing. The US regulatory threshold for airman sobriety is .04, less than .02 considered too low for enforcement purposes. Unless that’s changed. Things change. Hims is obviously this unfortunate’s future. If, that is, she/he clears all the hurdles tossed at her path back.
