Pilot Arrested For Drunken Mooning

What is it with regional airline pilots that they keep getting arrested for being found drunk and partially disrobed? Now a couple of Trans State Airlines pilots have been charged with public intoxication in Alcoa, Tennessee with one of them found mooning oncoming traffic on the Alcoa Highway. In a similar fashion to our previous naked pilot escapade, this one started out at a nearby restaurant with the two getting a little out of hand after being denied any more alcohol. That's when Jeffrey Saltis decided to show people his good side after dropping his drawers on the side of the road. Unfortunately for Saltis, one of the people who saw his backside was an Alcoa police officer. The other pilot, Michael Etzel was found intoxicated in front of an Applebee's with a female who was trying to take pictures of Etzel showing his derriere to the public. Both pilots, who fly for United Express, were released from custody with a charge of public intoxication and Saltis also receiving an indecent exposure charge. If these guys keep this up, I'll have enough to start a PointNiner's Pilots Gone Wild file.

Pilot arrested for drunken flying and bad landing

After Greg Anderson crash landed his Cessna 182 at the Santa Maria Airport yesterday, authorities thought the pilot seemed a bit off. Of course, after a airfield sobriety test was administered to Anderson, the fella came up a bit over the legal limit to operate a motor vehicle under California law. Fortunately no one was with Anderson in the aircraft at the time of his nose-down landing that ended up shearing off the aircraft's nose gear. Can you get a FUI in California?
