Hmm.
Maybe I have been mis understood (and probably my own fault too
)
I was not trying to say anything bad about William, but rather, I was commenting on the BBC's choice of word for wings or brevet, hence my comment on him not earning his wings.
I actually feel the story should have had more prominence, as while we are in a monarchistic society, if royalty achieve something, then it should be noted.
I have no idea as to whether he is a good pilot, or how good an officer Harry may be, but do hear many positive things about the pair of them, and have no reason to doubt what I hear.
