Well if we are talking about QR flights going to BAEC, I could get 1200TP and 56k avios if doing that.

My plan is to put these flights into AY+ where they will earn me 90271 TP and AP. I have no idea about BAEC - would it make any sense to let QR points go to BAEC for me?

--ADDED
Rest of year flights will make the total come to 1610TP and 73k avios, compared to 164k AY TP/AP. Besides the stupidity to credit AY R-VALUE to BAEC, this seems pretty equal to me. As I am unlikely to fly BA, a BA gold holds no special attraction with me.

--ADDED once more
And I would make 60789 miles, 87993 EQM and 12158 EQD on Aaaaadvantage.
76800 Qmiles and 414 Qpoints on QR PC.

None of these are emerald if I understand it all correctly. The Qmiles is worth one or possibly 2 longhaul upgrades, and I have no idea what 60k miles on AA or 73k avios is worth. If someone knows how to value these, I'd appreciate it!
