Disabled individuals who seek a career in aviation and the FAA are tested using the same standards as non-disabled applicants, often with stricter requirements. Air traffic controllers are required to pass an extensive medical examination every 12-24 months. https://www.aviationmedicine.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Medical-Standards-for-Terminal-and-En-Route-Centers-for-ATC-Positions%C2%A0FAA-Brochure.pdf https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Order/FAA_Order_3930.14A.pdf https://www.faa.gov/newsroom/faa-provides-aviation-careers-people-disabilities https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/atpubs/foa_html/chap2_section_8.html https://medium.com/faa/a-career-path-for-air-traffic-controllers-with-disabilities-9e5ca577aa0c
