Prince William PVR
Just read that Prince William is leaving the RAF after 7 years service.
Whilst I have great reverence for the Monarchy I do hope Flight Lieutenant Mountbatten-Windsor has a better pro-rata compensation than I did after PVR as a Flight Lieutenant.
My service was 22 years and I received, after commuting 50%, a 'princely' sum of GBP 5,000.
My current monthly pension is, after tax, around GBP500/month.
In the UK....how much is a haircut these days?

On a point of order, Mr D, Prince William will never leave the military for the rest of his life!

When I asked if my gratuity would be paid pro rata if I went before my 8 year point I was told "Leave before 8 years and you get nothing and here's a nice ground tour for your cheek!"

Do you think they'll chop his flying pay until his out date? Isn't he off to play with the Pongos?

Given the strong rumours that he was returning to the Blues, coupled with his love of and skill at flying, could there be a Royal grump along the lines of:
"Well if I can't fly and you won't let me go to war like Wales Minor, then I'm buggared if I'm going to trot up and down outside Granny's house like a chocolate soldier. Gissa proper job!"
Just wondering ........

Off Thread a little, but how can we get the BBC to understand that this newfangled imaginary creature, "the military", does not exist. Get rid of it !
I, and most of you, and Flt/Lt the Duke of Cambridge, serve or served in the Royal Air Force (and are proud to do/have done so).
"Military" is an adjective, not a noun.

Nostalgia...where are the good old days when I was a Halton Apprentice and we got a free haircut every week...whether we liked or not!
I still have hair (white, no longer brown) and my father was completely bald.....so maybe there is something to the theory that cutting hair makes it stronger.
Flight Lieutenant Mountbatten-Windsor seems to be losing his hair...but he went to Cranwell!
