These figures above support what I’ve been told from my mates there. Obviously other airlines might be paying better.

On the above link, a year 2 FO on the E175 would be on approx 50k usd which is about 68k AUD. I stand by my previous comments.
Your “mates there”. Lol. I don’t have the time, nor the inclination to teach you what you don’t know. It’s all been said before - By Australians that actually live and work in the U.S. On this website.

Let’s for a moment imagine that you’re correct. Double $68K is $136K. A 2nd year Q link FO is making that ? “Double” as you said. No, you can’t add Super, and meal allowances, and whatever other scraps that you need to make your case. You can include their profit sharing, or there sign on Bonus, or the the fact that the upgrade is in the second year. Or the effective tax rate that’s half of the Australian rate. No ? Thought so.
