Flying Drunk

Hmmmm, interesting: Pilots Guilty of Operating Jet While Drunk. Yet, somehow, the defense is finding a way to spin this to get the clients off a little easier.

“Defense attorneys said the pilots should not be convicted because they were not really operating the plane at the time in question. They said it was under control of the tug truck driver towing it to the runway.”

Okay. I suppose we should be thankful that this is their argument—it just as easily could have been, “They weren’t really operating the plane when it crashed and killed everyone on board.”
