You would garner a lot more support and respect if you came out and just said what it is you're trying to change. The law or your financial position. It's selfish, no matter what way you look at it. To say that a physically qualified pilot can't continue to do the thing he loves is selfish. To say you have made some bad financial decisions, like remaining in the right seat for your entire career, then say you need more money sounds disingenuous, and selfish.
Yeah Baby! AMEN!
