Not seeing the point of your argument? But, out of the 2 EBA's I know which I'd rather be on.
Regarding the "basket of hours" and I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that, if both groups work fly roughly 85hrs / month, again the QF pilot prices himself off the chart by pulling 27hours of overtime compared to a JQ pilot who pulls 10.
Unless I've got it all wrong, which is highly likely.
