Back in April, ATI reported that blood tests on a pilot detained at London Heathrow in March were negative, resulting in his being cleared of suspicion of breaching alcohol regulations.

Perhaps Virgin should take a leaf out of Emirates' book. The Middle Eastern carrier uses a UK diagnostics company, Nemesis Scientific, to perform drug and alcohol testing services across its network.

Effective from April, the move ATI suggested, This move may well have something to do with the fact that one of its pilots was convicted after being stopped, while under the influence, at LHR before operating a service to Dubai.
