CHARLES C. GABBARD, Petitioner, v. FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION and THE NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD, Respondents. |
|
On Petition for Review of an Order
of the National Transportation Safety Board.
No. SE-18008.
Argued: April 29, 2008
Decided and Filed: June 19, 2008
Before: BATCHELDER and SUTTON, Circuit Judges; BARZILAY, Judge.
SUTTON, Circuit Judge. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) revoked Charles Gabbard’s airman and medical certificates after he failed a drug test and after the FAA concluded that he piloted a chartered jet with a prohibited drug in his system. Because Gabbard has not shown that the agency’s decision was arbitrary, capricious or otherwise not in accordance with the law, we deny his petition.
