Melbourne, Dec 11 (ANI): Prince William is all set to fly choppers as a search and rescue pilot in the Royal Air Force after having completed his flying exams successfully.
William, 27, was “relieved, pleased and exhausted” after passing the test.
“It’s a pretty tough course with a relatively high drop-out rate - but he came through it reasonably comfortably,” News.com.au quoted a St James’s Palace source as telling the Sun.
Prince William, the second in line to the British throne, will now learn rescue techniques as part of the next stage of his training. (ANI)
