Why would he be wearing RAF wings on his RN uniform?
Never suggested that HRH would or should -the clue was in the phrase "Anyone who has had a pair of wings pinned on 'em ". My comment simply stemmed from the fact that there has been conjecture in other earlier threads about the basis on which Royals who have been awarded wings by one Service subsequently end up wearing the wings of the other Services, sometimes without any obvious justification eg. Prince Michael of Kent, who displays RN/RAF/AAC wings when wearing the uniform of the relevant Service. In the case at issue, Prince William has very commendably completed full training on the Sea King, an aircraft operated by the FAA, hence it would seem perfectly possible that that might qualify him for FAA pilot's wings which, as Air Pig helpfully points out, are worn on the left sleeve.
Whew!

PS So that's what that badge was!
