Is it time for him to go?

It was announced in February that up to 100 trainee RAF pilots are to be sacked all in the name of cost cutting, some of these youngsters have only a few more hours of flying time before gaining their 'Wings'.

Yet here we have a qualified RAF pilot, who never seems to be on duty, a recent tour of the UK and now New Zealand and Australia, amongst his 'time off' pursuits.

Surely it would be better to give him the old 'heave ho', and retain one of these youngsters facing the sack?

At least the RAF would then have a pilot who would be able to give 100% to his duties.

Its like the chicken and egg situation. Without planes pilots are redundant and we are getting rid of many squadrons.

Your link refers to Prince William. Very noticeable that his search and rescue squadron are remaining intact. I mean it wouldn;t be right to sack a Royal would it especially as he has just completed his training?.

and I bet his colleagues are very thankful for that.

trying to shoot him down before he even really gets off the ground in life.........

pretty contemptuous act in my book by you, especially given the grief that Christchurch and Queensland have had to bear.

I guess it is a normal reaction, though, by someone who is so dedicated to that pile of shiite called the Daily Mail.
