The varying standard of RAF Luge
I personally, am disapointed with this years standard of luge within the RAF. According to RAF News:
If we are to progress as an agile and adaptable Air Force we need to address this situation quickly and start to produce quality lugers (sp?). Think to yourself, when was the last time you practised your luge?

“A couple of us had accidents but it’s part and parcel of the sport” mused SAC Tech Steve Stewart from RAF Wittering, “You’re going to get banged about but it’s a case of you fall off your horse and you get back on it
- I think I've just spotted the probable cause of the Luge spills, yet again our chaps on the ground are being let down by MOD's failure to provide the correct equipment.
I like the idea of Luge and Skeleton Bob. At the last Winter Olympics there seemed to be some really quite old, really quite porky folk strapped into their lycra doing it. Was it invented as the fastest way to get down the hill to the pub? I just wonder whether, 25 years after I stopped playing competitive rugby, I haven't found a new sport.....
