I'm not on any sort of test plan, so testing is not a factor.

Are you a commecial pilot? If so, how does that work?

I obey the FARs as far as drinking goes because I wouldn't want to find
out the hard way that the Feds are right about

I can say categorically that I can't even conceive of flying under the
influence of alcohol, pot...Benadryl...I rarely drink pop or coffee before I
fly 'cause caffeine is a diuretic. paradox. I'm less worried about having
an accident because of alcohol (I rarely drink) than I am about potentially
having an accident and then having the NTSB determine that there was alcohol
in my system.

If you have an accident, what good is the test? Since there are people out
there
who would fly while intoxicated, I think it likely that random testing
prevents
this to some extent.

Thanks, George. Food for thought.
