All the mental arguments aside. If you haven’t actually had a heart attack, stroke, or mental breakdown, and can see with glasses you should be able to earn a living flying and get any issues treated BEFORE they become a problem. That’s why there are two of us up there anyway. Instead so many pilots are ticking clocks bc they don’t seek treatment bc the FAA strokes a pen and they lose their livelihood in a instant.
To the FAA it’s no treatment no problem which is exactly the opposite approach that should be taken. More often bad things happen bc treatment is never sought.
