you are a moron.

You know what you did was wrong and you keeping trying to justify your lie. You presented AA as required when it is NOT as a matter of law. Many pilots have used RR, how the h%$l should I know the numbers of certs? I'm not an official.

Fixed it for you again. There is more than one way to recovery. RR is free, you never have to buy anything. Though AA may be free, HIMS is very very expensive. And you continue to lie and mislead, anything you have to pay for RR is HIMS related expense, NOT RR related. Psych, urine tests...

there are no meetings. you are free to eat pie while you post on the monitoring forums.

And you would suggest as a cheaper alternative the $90,000 of 3 month inpatient treatment? During that 3 months you cannot work either. That extra stuff is all voluntary and is not forced on anyone if they don't want it, the free course on AVRT is enough to break an addiction for life.

Ahh, and I will keep faith that the OP can differentiate between the concept of necessary and sufficient. Hard to believe someone got through medical school without knowing the difference.

I just wanted to make sure everyone is getting the correct information, it is oftentimes withheld.

I NEVER said anything about moderate drinking, or controlled drinking. RR is strictly about abstinence. One relapse and you are banned for life from RR.

That is extremely offensive to me. I have been to Mexico three times since RR and have not had a drink even though it would have been extremely easy and nobody would have ever found out. IT WORKS for me, and for you to state otherwise is an insult to my dignity.

You presented AA as mandatory for certification. The fact is that it is NOT. That is not truthful.

fixed that for you.

It is proof because that is a licensed 1st class medical pilot flying for the airlines. It is proof that you can be CERTIFIED without AA. You said AA is the only option for certification.

This is FALSE for 1st class as well. PROOF below. Let's remember it's not just about certification, it is about safety. AA is ineffective. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKG_VSJ_W1U

Love this. Guy used to drive drunk but never got caught. Holier than OP though! bonus: Guy holds himself in esteem for taking a taxi's home after a night out drinking. Wow, I am so proud of you!

This is totally inappropriate and false. Many pilots have recovered without AA using Rational Recovery. The supreme court has ruled that AA is "unequivocally religious" and that forced AA is an invasion of conscience. Though AA works for some people, OTHER options must be available as an...

That is not what I was told by a HIMS AME, he told me the FAA does not allow moderate drinking because that one lady who started moderation management ended up killing a couple of people in a homicide DUI. I later found out that incident occurred 2 months after she quit moderation management...

This had nothing to do with what I said and I have no idea why you posted some random remark about congress. The sooner OP learns that the FAA does not accept moderate drinking the better off he will be. There are lots of avenues to going tea-total.

Go to the Rational Recovery website and take the free AVRT course. I don't know if you'll ever have a chance working for the government since they are holier than thou, but your chances in aviation definitely are not over as long you quit drinking forever.

I would recommend first seeing a university professor who specializes in the disorder. Don't just jump into a hims guy right away, first get to the bottom of this just like if you actually needed to know if you have bipolar or not. Then bring that letter (or two) with you in your hand when you...
