Fact? Maths? Well from ComutAir website, your figures of 115-120K are for Capts and not for FOs. FOs get upto 74K according to the site, these figures include a sign on bonus (usually a one time payment, that’s what “sign on” means) of 45k and 22K respectively. Also included in those numbers is 4K for “hotels, parking and uniform”

I think it’s safe to say QR doesn’t pay their pilots less than FOs at regionals in the US. Au contraire, quite the opposite.

QED.
