Quite a gambit.
As others noted, gotta love the airline pilots with handicap stickers, pulling in their two hundred grand on their first class medical, and disability at the same time. Uncle Sam is quite the cash cow.
I'm not disabled enough not to fly for a living either.
The VA has rules that say for XXX I get a disability rating.
The FAA says that I can get a waiver for that to fly.
Not a thing wrong with it and your cockles are irrelevant.
