Breath Alcohol Testing for Aviation Crew
Aviation tests crew before duty, and the test has to be both quick and recorded. A fuel cell analyzer gives an alcohol-specific reading; a printer or logged record shows when each crew member was tested and with what result.
Ground staff working airside — fuelling, ramp and maintenance teams — are screened the same way, often at the start of the shift.
When to test
- Pre-flight crew checks
- Start of shift for ground and ramp staff
- Random checks across crew and staff

Questions from aviation teams
- Which sensor suits pre-flight testing?
- A fuel cell sensor, which reacts to alcohol specifically and is the usual choice for professional testing.
- Why does a printed record help?
- It shows who was tested, when, and the result — a stronger record than a number read off a screen.
- What is India's legal driving limit?
- India's legal limit for driving is 30 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood (0.03% BAC), under Section 185 of the Motor Vehicles Act.
