Charles C. GABBARD, Petitioner, v. FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION and The National Transportation Safety Board, Respondents.

United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.

Decided and Filed: June 19, 2008.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

ARGUED: Charles W. Arnold, Arnold & Cowan, Lexington, Kentucky, for Petitioner. Agnes M. Rodriguez, Federal Aviation Administration, Office of The Chief Counsel, Washington, D.C., for Respondents. ON BRIEF: Charles W. Arnold, Arnold & Cowan, Lexington, Kentucky, for Petitioner. Agnes M. Rodriguez, Federal Aviation Administration, Office of the Chief Counsel, Washington, D.C., for Respondents.

Before: BATCHELDER and SUTTON, Circuit Judges; BARZILAY, Judge.


OPINION

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.
