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?

You could get 50 haircuts per month old chap.

I bet he does better than me!

After 13 years, I got £50 :sad:

What about a cull on errant full stops (Flt. Lt.) - they breed like flies..........

Seems to have been given preferential notice terms too. His last duty was only 2 days ago...presuming he doesn't have 18 months of holding now?

Looks like Bristow can scratch him off their list.

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!" :(

Don't want to be picky but should that not read Flt.Lt Wales ? ;)

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

Fackin ell ees ardly tret the crabs wif any nuff respect.
Got married in the wrong rig.
Never did no proper op tour.
Used the crabs.
A joke on the crabs, and a very bad example to real servicemen....and wimmin..

Another PVR? Morale must be bad on SAR...

Did he complete a minimum ROS?

Hangarshuffle, ok, I'll bite.....what the f...?

4Rock,

Quite right. What is this place coming to?

Flipflop,

Looks like you made him flouce off. The post appears to have gone. Why would that be?

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! :{
