They are flying in four different groups off two different lines. So scores are posted as groups get done. And then I am certain that there is a lag between the flight and posting scores. Although I would think they are done for the day by now (Noon PDT)

That's what I was thinking, thought they would have been done by now. QQ and Jason flew on different lines and both in the morning...Andrew and Brett within 4 pilots of each other, from what I understand.

Guys,

The scores you see now mean nothing until Wednesday. Nobody has flown against everybody yet, and each set of judges will score differently.

The placing will most likely change, but the scores do mean something...
They mean the following:
Quique is in 1st within his group
Andrew is in 1st within his group
Jason is in 4th within his group (probably one of the toughest group)
Bret is in 5th within his group

Looks like overall team USA is in line for some great results.

So far. Things will change (hopefully for the better) tomorrow regardless. You know who the top pilots in a given group are for today, sure, but there are three more days before you can say how things are going to end up. I wouldn't put too much stock on what you're seeing right now. And remember- Quique is not flying for the team this year, he's an independant as returning world champion, so his scores do not count for the team. Nevertheless, I think the US is poised for a good finish overall, and to say I'm pleased with Quique's flying since we've been over here is an understatement.
