That's what this would be useful for, recurrent linechecks, airlines have to do a lot of them.
From the union perspective we'd prefer to have such no-medical LCA drawn from the ranks of those out on medical disability. Don't really want random line checks from third parties (already get that from the FAA).
Same as with the no-medical required CFI, if you think about it how much can they
really do?
