</div><div><br></div><div>I also just completed an analysis of what would have happened if we'd normalized to best instead of to perfect, the only class where it would have made a difference in final placement was FAI Silver (MP15) where Jon's win in one round and 2nd place rounds were closer to Sean's scores than Dale's 2nd place rounds would have put him about 30 points over Dale.</div>

<div><br></div><div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;">1. Every score is normalized to PERFECT, not to best pilot</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;">2. Every AMA class flew 2 final rounds <span><span>on Sunday</span></span> using unknowns</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;">3. Best 3 of 4 prelim rounds were AVERAGED to produce a SINGLE round score to carry over into the finals.</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;">
4. Best 2 of 3 (prelim carry over + 2 final rounds = 3) count for the final score.</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;">In FAI F, Prelim carry over is shown as Round 1, Round 2 is first finals round, and round 3 is the 2nd final round -- for some reason the scoring program is showing that as round 0.<br>
