....is to become an air ambulance pilot. smile I'm glad that his training as a helicopter pilot will continue to be of use and it's a 'proper' job.
My daughter has completed her aero-medical training and recently got her 'wings' as a Life Flight specialist in Auckland NZ so I have some understanding of the training he'll need and what the job involves. Not for the squeamish - even as a pilot.

I think it is a fact that Charles will be King. Unless he abdicates, or dies.
He is the heir. Personally, I think he deserves his chance after all these years of waiting in what must be a difficult role in life, so good luck to him.
I rather like his quirkiness anyway.

I applaud Prince William for joining such a worthwhile service and continuing to help his fellow man wherever he can. We should be very glad to have a royal family and a working one too.
