I do not recall the exact figures, but it's my vague recollection that the
federal BAC limit is .10 or .12, while most states are at .08 these days.
And yes, that recent case confirmed that "state or police" (whatever that
means) have no jurisdiction over flying under the influence, since there
is
federal law that takes precedence.

The federal BAC limit is .04. Unfortunately, some states' laws are so poorly
written that they do not cover flying an airplane while under the influence.
