I had some weird scores on some flights.  On the first round, my scores 
had a 94 point raw score spread (one judge was consistently high).  The 
second round had only a 14.5 point spread (These judge hung together; 
the worst being an 8.0/6.0/7.0 on the 1/2 Inside Loop w/ 2/4 Roll Out). 
  The third round had only a 28.5 point spread (this despite a 
9.5/9.0/6.5 on the 1/2 Outside Loop w/ 2/4 Pt Roll Out).  The fourth 
round had a zero spread (an elevator half came unhooked from the clevis 
and I landed before completing the first airborne maneuver)!  The fifth 
round had a 63 point spread, including a 3.0/8.0/6.0 on the Vertical 
Square 8.  The sixth round had only a 33.5 point spread, however, it 
included 6.0/9.0/8.0 on the 1/2 Inside Loop w/ 2/4 Roll Out, 
6.5/8.0/8.5 Top Hat w/ 3/4 Roll Up, 1/4 Roll Dn and a 6.0/8.0/6.5 on 
the 1/2 Sq Loop w/ 1/2 Roll Out.

I can accept up to 1.5 point spread from three judges on a maneuver, 
but more than that means somebody screwed up.
