I don't ever see this happening, but I think airline management would love to rid themselves of training overhead.
Why? They could still run their own training. Just pay and work rules are standard. You’d still have to indoc, at least PC and all the normal FAA BS.
I’d like to see the FAA force standardized training. Same flows, procedures, call outs and profiles all based upon the aircraft, not which company is flying it.
