A Southwest Airlines pilot who was arrested earlier this year and fired for allegedly drinking before taking off in a commercial airliner is denying those allegations, despite police bodycam footage purportedly showing him failing a field sobriety test.
David Allsop, 53, had been flying with Southwest for 20 years and previously served in the U.S. Air Force. His attorney, David Chaiken, told The Independent that police bodycam footage showing his client's arrest actually makes clear he did not commit a crime.
