Almost 10 times the limit but only a 15 month sentence.

Utterly inadequate.

Reminds me of that lovely Private Eye cover years ago when Hirohito visited the UK.

"Nasty nip in the air."

Since August 2017, there have been 19 cases where Japan Airlines pilots have failed the company's alcohol tests, the company confirmed.

Over one a month!! And that's only the ones that were caught. I've never flown on JAL, and now I never will.
