it is a class B violation, it is not a violation the FAR's but it is a violation of a written FAA apporved procedure. The company will have to show it is taking action to correct this, but there will be no fine or violation. Just a letter of correction. Based upon my experience, not drinking, with a mechanic doing an engine run-up without completing company training.The "mooning pilots" made it onto the first few minutes of Inside Edition the other day and at the end of the report they mentioned that the two might have been drinking inside of TSA's 12 hour rule. My question is if they were found to be drinking within 12 hours, but outside of 8 hours can the FAA enforce any kind of certificate action? Obviously if they were drinking within 8 hours then they would have violated the FARs and certificate action would most likely follow. If someone is found violating a policy in their companies GOM can certificate action follow?
