But that is literally not what a cqfo is. A cqfo is a pilot who cannot hold a captain position but is qualified as a captain. A cqfo gets paid as a captain ONLY when they are in the right seat. A direct entry captain is paid as a captain full time regardless of the seat they sit in. CQFO is a hiring tactic to get people to sit reserve and use them in either seat and save money doing it.

G7 had never used CQFOs

As a direct entry captain will you sit in the right seat?

Yes.

With you ever get paid as an FO?

NO.
