    I think you've taken that reference the wrong way.....it could be the case of incorrect grammar.

    Hasn't changed JM.......Still 8 hours bottle to throttle but 12 hours is more sensible......Obviously that depends on how much you drink......HKG is 0.02 but like motor racing it should be zero....But it isn't...

    This is an interesting one.

    Traditionally we have always been told “8 hours bottle to throttle” but I’m not sure if it was ever an actual rule as such or just a rule of thumb. In any case it always seemed to me to be a pretty stupid rule if it was.
    If you really tie one on, there’s no way you’d be in a fit state to fly in 8 hours. I reckon plenty of pilots will have been caught out by this over the years.

    In the last few years, it has been officially 0.02, which seems a much more sensible rule even though I’m not comfortable with the idea of flying around at 0.02
    At least it’s an actual enforceable measure.

    However, just a couple of weeks ago I was having this discussion with a colleague and he claimed that CASA have recently gone back to “8 hours”. Which, if true, is a stupid thing to do for the reasons mentioned above.

    As Gary says, I’ve always used at least 12 hours as a guideline, and I actually have an accurate breathalyser here (which I bought for driving rather than flying purposes) so I suppose if I was concerned I could double check with that.

    Seems to me the smart thing to do is leave the heavy drinking for days off, and I certainly do that! :p

    I was working in F1J1 in '87 and the night before I left (6 month sabbatical) I was in the Suva Travelodge with all the pilots and the drunkest one (747 pilot) was flying me out the next day :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    I fell really safe :oops::oops::oops:

    In the RAAF I think they considered they were always on days off !!

    Worst I ever saw was a Mirage pilot from 77 sqn (known as the animal sqn back in the day) get helped into his seat when the RAAF were celebrating their 75th anniversary ............... he did a stupid fly by over the Amberley base hangars and broke the comms cable between the hangar and flight-line hut (he was THAT low !!!) ........... no way was he sober
