No drug or alcohol tests!! Is that standard procedure in the U.S.? In Australia our bus drivers are required to do drug & alcohol tests if they have been involved in any form of accident, as well as having to comply with random d & a tests whenever requested. I'm not entirely convinced that the U.S. Government has got this right. The flight crew may be entitled to their " civil liberties " but there's 20 times more pax in the back and their entitlements to expect a drug and alcohol free crew simply outweigh that of the crew. I have to agree with Scott. If you as a carrier wish to fly into the U.S. then one of the requirements is that your aircrew are required to provide mandatory d & a tests whenever required. No argument, no dissention.
in reality, part 129 ought to be done away with and all be subject to part 121 as American carriers are. While it is always been there, there needs to be something done about the language. I hear it often and some is better than others, but I could not understand them boys on the ATC tapes the other day.
NO DRUG OR ALCOHOL TEST FOR THESE CLOWNS, I'M SORRY BUT THIS IS INSANE !
We need to act now !!!! mandate a law that any carrier flying into the US must submit to a drug and alcohol test after any incident that involves damage to anyone or anything.
So as it is, ... they could have taken out the United 747 on the taxiway and NEVER submit
to these tests, UN #$$%%%^%& - real we are joke unitl this is changed, we should all be
outraged !!!!

I was thinking that one of the News stations said they had been D&A tested as per was standard in a crash, and that was Saturday afternoon
The firefighters were D&A tested per protocol but not the Korean pilots. Had they been American pilots D&A testing would have been mandatory.
Why in hell were the firefighters tested?
