Salamone, according to Castor, had a blood-alcohol content
of 0.15 percent, "with valium." That's nearly twice the
legal 0.08-percent limit to drive a motor vehicle in
Pennsylvania. The legal blood-alcohol limit for pilots is
0.04 percent, according to Federal Aviation Administration
officials.


Adding the valium is a nice touch, even if it is rather cliche. But to be
fair to the guy, the Pennsylvania limit was *NOT* 0.08 at the time of this
incident. The law went into effect on February 1st. Of course, he was also
well past the old limit of 0.10.
