Are there any pilots on here? Are you able to work while on ADT?

It sucks. But if I was a passenger and knew my pilot was sleepy or peed a lot and just not tip top shape, I'd feel very nervous flying!

@beaquilter And it's not just your pilot; it's all the other pilots flying around them, even in small planes. My private pilot license gave me the right to use the same airports and airspace as the heavy iron, and I landed my former Piper at busy U.S. airports like IAD and PHL as well as Canadian ones, often in instrument conditions.
I don't think the authorities always get it right — sometimes they get it very wrong — but it should be a high medical bar to operate any aircraft in or near controlled airspace (including drones).

@beaquilter Perhaps there would be concern if only one pilot but that is why there are co-pilots
