“BTW, you won’t be successful suing an airline pilot for doing his job.”

Not so. He has a job to do but he does not enjoy complete ammunity from civil suit. That is NOT what the FARs say. He must answer for his actions.

If I were piloting that craft I would Talk to the
passengers, assure them I was not drinking, take
the breathalyzer and thank them for their concern.

I may get annoyed maybe even angry but I would NEVER
show it. If the passengers were genuinely concerned
I would shrug it off and act PROFESSIONALY.

Not retaliate and throw them off the plane.
I have been in aviation for 35 years and am ashamed
at this behavior.
