60-year-old retired Alaskan Airlines pilot David Arntson was arrested, suspected of flying while under the influence of alcohol. Arntson was originally tested for alcohol after piloting two flights on June 20, 2014. In the two blood alcohol tests, Arntson tested 0.134 and then 0.142, which are both over the federal limit of 0.10 for pilots. Arnston had retired after those flights, for an unrelated medical issue.
