The pilots were fired and stripped of their commercial licenses. As a
bail condition, they were barred from recreational flying as well.

OK... this is the part that puzzles me. No surprise that they were fired.
Did the FAA strip them of their license? And, how could a bail condition
be upheld if the State had no authority? Since their blood alcohol level
was below that required for Federal criminal charges, and the State has no
case, shouldn't any bail be recinded?
