Is the Hainan Airlines pilot salary before or after tax?

Every figure on this page is gross, before income tax. We estimate captains at $192K and first officers at $98K pre-tax, and income tax, social insurance and any local levies come out of that. Take-home depends on where you are resident and on your own deductions, so no single percentage applies. Airlines based in countries with no personal income tax — the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia — leave more of the same gross figure in your hand.
