I guess in a duration contest the score is the same, although one pilot had to work a heck of a lot less. I guess that is a reason we need a landing task to settle that question? 8-)) In a accumulated altitude contest the guy tickling the clouds obviously found the big air and worked it for altitude, which will then allow him to range and reacquire, so he is going to be rewarded more.
