All of this medical crap is a bunch of smoke and mirrors. I get a medical every 2 years. When it is completed the doctors certifies that I am physically fit to fly. OK I am at that day and that moment. How long am I physically fit to fly? Who the hell knows! For the next 730 days (until my next physical) I self certify that I am physically fit to fly.
WAY less than 1% of accidents/incidents are due to medical conditions. Something like 17% are due to "fuel mismanagement". Maybe every two years pilots need to prove they are able to read a fuel gauge and demonstrate they know what "left" "right" and "both" mean.
