1Opinion of the Court

MAGILL, Circuit Judge.

Norman Lyle Prouse, Robert John Kirchner, and John Wesley Balzer appeal their conviction upon a jury verdict and sentence for operating a commercial passenger airplane while under the influence of alcohol in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 342 (1988). Appellants raise numerous claims. The most substantial is that the district court 1 improperly denied their motion to suppress blood test evidence because it was obtained in violation of their fourth amendment rights. We reject all of appellants’ claims and affirm both their convictions and their sentences.
