Lawyers, Pilots and being forced to AA and speak AA speak - Is that a thing ?

Lawyers discuss the reality of being forced to attend AA - AA based rehab and even forced to talk their "talk" so they can fly. How is this possible. Listen in for the facts behind the madness. A Lawyer from Cleveland, Ohio will join me to discuss the new movement to push back and stop teh coercion. The FAA just made it a requirement that all pilots in the HIMS Program will be forced to go to AA meetings for the "Life" of theri flying careers now ! Not so FAST we say.
