Are they actually planning to fail the recurrent check so they have an excuse to fire the pilots?
I actually think you needed to quote that sentence pretty much in its entirety to get the correct meaning from it:
Icelandair made the announcement that it would be terminating 45 of its 737 MAX pilots during a training session.
or, put differently:
Icelandair made the announcement, that it would be terminating 45 of its 737 MAX pilots, during a training session.
