Each airline should only be allowed one certificate to operate with thier own paint job and single pilot list by FAR. I know pipe dream. That way if passengers are flying on subcontracted work they will notice the different paint and maybe ask questions. Like, "If I paid for a Continental aircraft and experienced crew, why am I flying on JOE BOB'S Airservice/Flight school?"
