Judge: State cannot prosecute pilots accused of drunkenness
By The Associated Press

But she noted her decision was a ''narrow holding'' based on the
circumstances of the pilots' case and did not apply to anything
besides regularly scheduled commercial flights.






A state judge is powerless to suspend, or revoke a pilots license. Only
the FAA can do this. If she thinks she can she is sadly mistaken, and
the Feds will not let some power hungry state judge undermind their
authority. She is dreaming.
