Prince Harry qualifies as Apache pilot
I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Good for Harry.

Well done that man......and if anyone wants a good read about Apache pilots in Afghanistan, I would recommend Ed Macy's Apache

Probably a lot lower than that.Victory103 wrote:Hmmm, top 2% in the UK Army I guess.
British Army = ~100,000
AAC Apache pilots = ~150

Re: Prince Harry qualifies as Apache pilot
Well, it's true, he is a member of the Royal Family and this might have had consequences on this, but I read somewhere that Henry is very keen on serving his country and that he wanted to go to war along with other soldiers when he fought in Afghanistan, so I think he settled for it and got to this stage. Congrats to him!
Re: Prince Harry qualifies as Apache pilot
If he does go out to Afghan again, all I can say is that I hope those Aussie reporters who thought they were doing a public service by breaking the news that Prince Harry was serving out there, can find a foxhole deep enough to hide from a flechette salvo!! Ouch ya b*****d!!
