So this is a feature on the BBC at the moment and I thought it was really very good. I'm a bit of a royalist anyway, so this plays to what I like, but I really found that William does an exceptional job both being the Prince and 2nd in line to the throne as well as being pretty humble and relatable to the team which he works with as part of the air crew.

It's interesting that although I think he'll make a better monarch that Charles, I actually hope that he can live a bit more of a normal life for as long as possible. The work he does with the EAAA undoubtedly grounds him a bit.

Anyway, here's the link: http://www.bbc.com/future/gallery/20160914-inside-the-trauma-team-where-prince-william-is-a-pilot
 
Saw this link this morning and will watch it later, it's great that he's doing this and giving something back (doubt he's drawing a salary from this) and can only mould him better to rule (as much as he is actually allowed to do nowdays) over us.
 
I think it's a bit of a bum deal that this royal family is it now though.

Old school rules where if you took out the monarch made you monarch would spice things up. As it stands now though, they've got an eternal grip on it.
 
Prince William will make a good king, certainly a better head of state than any of the yank hopefuls or sitting or European heads, I for one prefer him to Charles simply because Mountbatten didn't have a malign influence upon him as a child.
 
Gets to fly helicopter all day and be cheaper than a real pilot... +For NHS.
As long as he don't go PTSd and thinks he's in an AH64 gunning down jihadys in Afghanistan
 
I don't think he will make a great King because we have no idea yet what he will be like, nor do I think he has ever lived a normal life since the day he was born.
