Our Majesty W.A. plans to fly once a month with KLM as FO.
I take it this is enough to stay fully current?
I would not be surprised that KLM schedules all those flights as line training so nobody can be blamed or embarrassed if just something might go slightly amiss.

It was rumored that the choice for the Head of State 737 was influenced by the choice of KLM for 737s.
both for maintenance as for type rating W.A.
(Embrear was not considered)

When you fly once a month you rack-up 100 hours per year?
W.A. Will Have to keep flying well beyond 65 to get at the same level as Prince Philip.
