This chart is worthless.
Based on what airlines have negotiated in their agreements with the majors, they pay different costs. Some have the mainline carrier paying for their airplanes, pilot training, etc, while others do not.
Carriers that don't bear as many other costs are going to have a higher percentage of costs be for the crew.

Okay. That's understood. But how does BrewCity infer that Republic crews cost twice as much as Compass? That was my original point. I understand they could be costlier than Compass but one cannot infer that they are twice as expensive (at least not from the chart). That was my original point that seems to have been lost

1. We don't know what the total costs are for each airline
2. Each regional airline has different cost items as spelled out in their respective Asa or CPA with their mainline.
So these are next to useless
