Prince William flies in helicopter as Army Air Corps’ new colonel-in-chief

Published

on

King Charles has handed over a prestigious role with the Army Air Corps to his son, the Prince of Wales.

The King became colonel-in-chief of the Army Air Corps 32 years ago, and now he has been succeeded by his eldest son.

Following the symbolic handover from his father, Prince William changed into military fatigues and flew in an Apache helicopter from the airbase.

He was formerly an RAF search and rescue pilot, spending three years at RAF Valley in Anglesey.

“The great thing is he’s a very good pilot indeed,” said the King at the ceremony in Middle Wallop, Hampshire.

With his own cancer treatment still continuing, the King spoke to a veteran at the event in Hampshire who had undergone chemotherapy for testicular cancer, and they appeared to discuss losing the sense of taste.
