It's important to note that alcohol can play an important role in helping one to cope with management and med crews.

But, you are free to test that concept youself if you'd like!

Your "intent" doesn't have anything to do with it, since you are on duty, and the prima facia evidence is that you are acting and intending to act as a Part 135 pilot.

 

Call in sick and don't duty on if you want to avoid the violation and enforcement action!

I know another pilot who did the samething. Spent  the weekend in the drunktank, dressed in their flight suit. couldn't see the judge until Monday. Battling PTSD and depression after a couple tours. Hopefully they got the help they needed.

 

Unfortunately they aren't the first and won't be the last.

Whether he was on duty or not. He was arrested for DUI. And terminated by AMC. And he will have to report it on his next medical, whether convicted or not. And will have to complete a alcohol rehabilitation program to get his medical back. Can be done, has been done To get back flying. It with be a tough road. Good luck Aaron.

not impossible. The Delta pilot that was drunk and tried to sneak a handle of vodka onto the plane in 2019 has his first class medical back with no restrictions.
