FAA Clears Harrison Ford In Hawthorne Runway Mishap
HAWTHORNE (CBSLA) – Actor Harrison Ford has been cleared following an investigation into a piloting incident which occurred Hawthorne Municipal Airport in April. The Federal Aviation Administration has closed the case after requiring that the 78-year-old Ford take a “remedial runway incursion training course,” an FAA spokesperson told CBSLA in a statement Thursday.

I would assume he was "cleared" because he took the training course. Just a way to let him off the hook.
although it does take a lot of time to get the flight hours for a pilots license,the trianing private pilots of any age receive is no where near what is given frequently to those who pilot commercial aircraft..there have been many private plane crashes in the last year or so reported,some fatal,some not,so it cannot be justified to say mr ford got away with something because of his celebrity" status..yes,he did make a mistake that could have been more serious..that is obvious..the decisison regarding his license or his training or whatever,was up to the faa and they made a judgement..
It's pretty common knowledge Mr. Ford likes to partake in the consumption of a certain substance now becoming more and more legal in a number of states. No matter one's personal opinions about this new tolerance, most would agree heavy use of this substance can have a detrimental effect over time. Was drug testing a part of the investigation?
