Of which paying tax takes a huge chunk out of. I have no doubt that the T&C are far superior in the US than the Middle East. However, in terms of raw take-home NET pay they are not. From what I see they are probably comparable all in.
The discussion of US pilots vs this nationality and that is childish and unbecoming of a supposedly professional group. There are good and bad pilots of all nationalities. Argue the facts and the issues not the 'sticks and stones' of the playground.
