I didn't see anything in either the CNN or the Yahoo story that said that he failed any kind of drug or alcohol test. All it said was he was pulled off the flight. How do we know this wasn't just an unfounded accusation?

First paragraph of CNN story says he failed a blood-alcohol test.

What did his crew do in this matter. The FO and FA just sat with him in the van and said nothing while the driver noticed all of this. They could of said call in sick and go back to the hotel and sleep it off. Or the other crew members call in sick. That flight should have never been able to leave on time

Well as usual... lets wait to see what the actual facts are before stones are cast.
I'm sure there will be many different opinions on the punishment to be meted if the chappy is guilty as charged. |

Do I have compassion for alcoholics? Some, yes. However, I will never recognize it as a disease. Disorder, maybe. Cancer is a disease. Willingly dumping a fifth of vodka down the hatch isn't a disease. Calling it a disease is just the sentiment of todays world: it's not MY fault that I drink.......it's a disease. Bull crapola. Each and everyone of us have free will. Leukemia, that's a disease.

With this driver being the one who called it in, I bet this week 50 other hotel van drivers wanna be the next hero of the day and call the cops on crews they might suspect so they themselves can feel heroic. Just like TSA screeners love to be the hero who nails the next drunk pilot. |
Just because somebody uses bad judgement while using alcohol doesn't make him or her an alcoholic. Who knows what is going on in this person's life maybe just maybe they made a mistake. What happens to Doctors or Nurses when they show up for work drunk do they automatically lose there jobs never to return. I don't think so. Give this person a break, nobody is perfect.
