Olympic Flame

After the past week or so media coverage of the Olympic Flame I feel it finally settles the debate for whose service should control the UKs military aviation toys...

For simplicity for our impeccable media, the RAF should own/operate all military aviation. Therefore, after their meticulous research, they would not make little slips ups such as "RAF Culdrose", red & grey Sea King rescue credited to the RAF, any helicopter/aircrew belongs to the light blue service etc.

As for corporate knowledge, ability, ethos... and actually exercise in field conditions (train hard/realistically, fight easy) we'll forget about that. So brevets to all, no secondary duties, jobs for the boys and DFCs all round.
