91 reg and drunk pax

[Squanto]

Trying to find the 91 reg that does not allow a drunk pax to fly. This is a "not for hire" situation. Straight 91 ops.......pax in this case is the owner.

Thanks

Sec. 91.17 Alcohol or drugs.
(b) Except in an emergency, no pilot of a civil aircraft may allow a
person who appears to be intoxicated or who demonstrates by manner or
physical indications that the individual is under the influence of drugs
(except a medical patient under proper care) to be carried in that
aircraft.

how drunk is he/she and is this a hill worth dying on?

Because the drunk pax is the owner, I would probably apply the mortgage, car loan, health insurance, and utility bill rules to this situation.

Thankfully, my boss doesn't drink. But how nasty could things get if someone was pretty well sauced and then sat in a 6 or 8000' cabin for an hour(presumably while still drinking)? That's a real question....who's got a story?

Climb to 10,000...they go to sleep until you descend through 4000 again.

Don't ask me how I know.

Fly safe!
