I'll let you do that math.


You do realize a 737-800 carries more people than an E175 right? I don’t trust you to do the math, so I’ll do it for you.

Using your numbers:

$400 / 166 seats = $2.41/seat/hr

$135 / 76 seats = $1.78/seat/hr

$1.78 / $2.41 = 74%

The cost for pilots on a 76 seat RJ is 74% of the cost of a 737-800. Well over half.

Are you that daft or just bad at solving logic problems?
