it just tests for sugars or something, if you pop your insulin before you go to the AME you'll pass the test.

A little off topic, but does any else get people making remarks when they find out you are a pilot along the lines of "Have you ever thought of going to Mexico or South America and flying drugs in your small plane"? I actually get it quite frequently...Most of the time just a stupid joke, but i actually think some of the people have been serious when asking me. It pisses me off to no end, and if I don't know the person very well it actually sort of offends me. I always reply back along the lines of, absolutely not...Have you ever considered venturing a drug enterprise through your business or trade?

How did he get his ticket back?

He brought lawyers, guns and money.

Some of the younger folks here will have no clue what I'm talking about but that's okay.

Yup. I have had it. People are like "man, we go could just go drug run to south America." I don't get offended, I think people see pilots as living this dangerous life style. People really don't realize how much trouble you can get into for being in the slightest trouble with the law and not notifying your employer. DUI/DWI is the biggest thing that I have to explain to people and how I would almost consider my career over if I where to get a DUI/DWI.

Living in AZ??

You hear it all the time. We all joke about it from time to time, but I actually think there are some people that are dead serious.
