I have spent a couple of hours drafting the Run the Gauntlet scenario for the Algernon Pulls It Off! Jasta 18 project, and I'm pretty happy with how it has turned out. This game includes a few special rules to make it a bit more interesting, including a bonus Air Gunner card to reflect the defensive fire power of the DH9 formation, and the use of an optional blind for the Jasta 18 formation. As an extra twist, the Jasta 18 aircraft can choose to enter as individual aircraft from randomly determined points around the edge of the table, but lose their formation move / fire and 'Flying Circus!' formation bonus move card if they do. The Victory Points are the only thing I'm not entirely sure about, with the Germans getting one VP for shooting down a bomber, while the RAF get one VP for each bomber that exits the table via the opposite end and two for any enemy aircraft shot down. That will definitely need play testing to see if I've got the balance right.
