Did you READ the report. It was 7% not 76% percent 124 out of 1683. The
rate varied by year from 4% to 9%. Now I would argue that 1% is still too
high, but I know perfection isn't going to ever happen.


Margy, the 76% number came from a VERY quick Google of "Aircraft accidents
alcohol" from I beleive Redwood City PD. I said at the time I took that
number with a grain of salt.

Though I have no idea where the P.D. got their figures the 76% wasn't fatal
accidents while the second report was just fatal accident.

And no, I didn't spend more than about 5 minutes reading this report but
it's post was mainly to sho the Happy Dog that counter to his belief the FAA
did study this stuff before they made the rule.
