TAR 18 Finale speculation and discussion

Which teams are we talking about? If I'm correct we are missing photo evidence of 4 teams (Mel/Mike, Gary/Mallory, Margie/Luke and Zev/Justin).

Now, let's consider the possibilities

All 11 teams were at the airport but only 9 (?) were seen OR Only 9 teams were at the airport at the same time. So the other 2 could have been
- sent out as early decoys (seems unlikely though, since they used more decoys later);
- be eliminated teams put on a different flight for lack of space on the plane (but who were still there at the finish line I suppose);
- be eliminated teams that were unable to fly due to loss of documents (very very unlikely but still possible);
- be racing teams, which, in case of a final three, would give another team a pretty big advantage;
- be the only two racing teams left, making it a final two as someone suggested. I think this is possible, I've only been watching TAR since season 12 but I don't remember a time when all three teams looked like having a chance all the way to the end. There was always one left behind pretty soon and hardly appearing on the screen so they may have decided to make it a final 2 to increase suspence.

Do we know anything about the time when the photos were taken? it looks like night in Jet's photo, and evening in Ron and Chris' photo, but the others are much brighter. Are decoys usually sent out before real racers or at the same time?

Prophet:
If it is a final 2 then how did the eliminations go down? I suppose you could just remove the last NEL. But again I am highly doubtful that there is a final 2. I lean towards the idea that they were around and were simply not photoed/seen for whatever reason.

I believe the pics were taken between 930-1030 on the 13th.

Am I correct that Margie and Luke and Gary and Mallory were the 2 unseen teams?

weihen:
I think they made F3 going first,then decoys.Spotters just saw 3rd team in F3 and decoys when other 2 had already taken taxi and left.

The Queen V:
georgiapeach, you mentioned the spotter saw 9 teams but only 7 were present, can you give us a clue on who the other two were?

Zack.:
Would the active racers still have  their bags? If so, then we can say K/J, FTBE and I think K/V are in decoy mode. Of those not already eliminated, Jet/Cord and Ron/Chris are with bags, so either they're racing or they're good at decoying.

To the sage RFF Detectives, I think our finalists would be either:
1.Jet/Cord, Ron/Chris, and an unseen team (Goths?) or
2. Zev/Justin, Margie/Luke, Gary/Mallory or
3. A combination of three of those.

Am I on the right track? :cmas5
