Qantas it would seem owe their pilots a substantial amount of compensation.

Rated De, you are a navel gazer of the first order.
In both longhaul and shorthaul, sick leave entitlements ,in terms of days are well above the community norm and the applicable daily credit that applies in the credited hour pay system are the result of many NEGOTIATED EBAs.
So why don’t you stick to a subject you might know a little bit about, your navel.
