July 27 (UPI) -- A former Alaska Airlines pilot began his 1-year prison sentence this week after pleading guilty to flying while intoxicated.
David Hans Arntson, 63, of Newport Beach, Calif., had previously pleaded guilty to one felony count of operating a common carrier while under the influence. He will also pay a $10,000 fine as part of a plea deal he made with the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Central District of California in February.
