Funnily enough for the purposes of this thread I’ve been trying to track down the story of George Lee scoring almost 100% on one banner…mostly I’m sure down to his skills but as I recall there was also something about the way the score was calculated from hits vs rounds expended that came into it…

I’m sure the story made it into print, perhaps in “Air Clues” years back, but it doesn’t seem to have transitioned onto the internet..least not as far as I can see using my limited googling skills
