Yes, that's true, unless he's flying so far out that you can't see  
the downgrade because you can't see the airplane.  Then you downgrade  
for flying so $#@! far out!

However, there is some "wiggle room" for a judge under the smoothness  
and gracefulness criteria.  If two pilots are technically equal, the  
one who presents the maneuvers smoother and more graceful should be  
scored higher

That's the way I think you should judge.
