Flying Under the Influence Two Ex-Japan Airlines Pilots Grounded for Lying About Drinking

The Suspension of Two Japan Airlines Pilots Highlights Concerns over Pilot Fatigue and Excessive Drinking

TOKYO, Japan — In a shocking move, two former Japan Airlines (JAL) pilots have been suspended from flying by the Japanese transport ministry after it was discovered that they had lied about their alcohol consumption before a flight. The incident highlights concerns over pilot fatigue and excessive drinking in the aviation industry.

According to reports, the two former captains exceeded the allowed limit of alcohol consumption 12 hours prior to a scheduled flight. Not only did they exceed the limit, but they also provided false explanations to their former employer after arrival and attempted to cover up the excessive drinking. As a result, they have been suspended from flying for up to seven months.

This is not an isolated incident. The pair were fired by JAL after a flight from Melbourne to Tokyo in December was delayed for three hours due to alcohol exceeding the allowed limit being detected in their systems. In response, JAL's two most senior executives took a 30 percent pay cut for two months.

But why is this happening? Is it just a one-off mistake or are there deeper issues at play?

In recent years, Japan has introduced new regulations to clamp down on alcohol consumption by pilots after several incidents hit the headlines. In 2018, a JAL co-pilot was arrested in Britain shortly before a flight for being almost 10 times over the legal blood alcohol limit. And just last year, All Nippon Airways delayed a domestic flight because a co-pilot failed an alcohol breath test.

The root causes of pilot fatigue and excessive drinking need to be addressed to ensure the safety of air travelers. One possible solution is the use of technology, such as Canard, which tracks flight hours, alertness levels, and blood alcohol content (BAC) in real-time. This would allow pilots to identify potential issues before they become major problems.

However, it's not just about the tech – it's also about creating a culture of accountability within the aviation industry. Pilots need to feel comfortable reporting fatigue or other concerns without fear of reprisal. And airlines need to take proactive steps to address these issues, rather than simply reacting after an incident has occurred.

In conclusion, the grounding of two ex-Japan Airlines pilots for excessive drinking and lying serves as a stark reminder that pilot fatigue and alcohol consumption are critical issues that require immediate attention. By using technology like Canard and creating a culture of accountability within the aviation industry, we can work towards making flying safer for everyone.
