fake in the China lot I yeah back in the early days said the pilot for 25 years
with the airlines
and in the early days we were trying to respond
well we were responsible for making sure that our coworkers were not impaired
right and we knew we were the last line of defense so if somebody was
and it's extremely rare I don't think I've ever seen a
somebody was acting impaired
it was our responsibility to calling out
getting the professional standards Employee Assistance et cetera
keep them from even getting to the airport and
take your the issue now it's easier for people to just look the other way and
say it all
well drug test not getting yeah and I think that in the
in the process it's actually made it less safe so you as a commercial pilot
believe the drug testing has actually made the aviation environment was safe
I duke I do because now out
supervisors or coworkers are are more inclined to just look the other way and
with the drug test taker
is their false sense of security that as pension yes yeah exactly it makes
perfect sense

you know dress is not the coercion being used and adds another
