This relates to check airman certification rather than routine line pilot PCs ? The first sentence in the article didn't exactly indicate that, saying "...might leave all pilot proficiency checks on airline pilots up to the airlines themselves...".

So, if I understand this correctly, “…the union representing government inspection pilots. The Canadian Federal Pilots Association, which represents mostly federal government pilots…”, sees their jobs being threatened by check airman certification being moved in-house to the airlines ?

“The documents also say that Transport Canada is having trouble hiring qualified inspector pilots.”

Well, of course they are.

Have I missed something ?
