It says American Eagle Captain, but on the Eagle forum it's being said that an AA flight cancelled out of MSP today, so we shall wait for the media to straighten it out.... not, ha ha. Either way bad day for pilots and for AMR.

The same thing happened on other articles, the LGA flight had a captain swap and was delayed a few hrs.

It's only a matter of time before we get a 24hr alcohol restriction in the FARs. And if it does happen, don't blame the FAA.

If we wouldnt be stupid about overdoing it the night before. We only did it to ourselves. Which seems to happen a lot in this industry.

Speak for yourself.

A huge majority of pilots are responsible with their alcohol consumption, and will continue to be.

I'm not wearing diapers because a couple idiots **** their pants.
