I used a total of 5 different FTOs for all my training over the years (including PPL etc. and 6 if you count the MCC) and many more if you count recreational hour building and general PPL flying. On both sides of the Atlantic.
When I went for interview, nobody cared where I'd done any of my flying. All they seemed interested in about was if I was current and if I'd passed everything first time. That was their way of assessing training risk I suppose rather than getting access to training records that a lot of people either wouldn't have or wouldn't want the company to have access to.
I know Flybe have this thing but there is the possibility that once the market picks up again, they will relax this requirement.
