Will the press be wanting more Helicopters, to go ambulance chasing?

The BBC were reporting that his Protection Officer would be on board with him...Not much room with the Doctor/paramedic and patient in the back of a EC135.

A bit more room with the newer EC145 but attending a major incident an extra Paramedic or his body guard?

I notice the job pays £40,000 p.a. which he is going to donate to charity. I hope he donates it to the air ambulance or works for them for free though.

This is not a good move, it leaves the door open for terrorists now able to plan an exact meeting, place and time, on their terms, by staging an accident in a remote spot.

It's no problem, Harry will accompany every flight in his Apache.

The employer is Bond Helicopters as I understand it. He will work for them at the commercial rate.

The money he earns will be going to EAAA, the charity.

So can we expect a rash of incidents in East Anglia, with damsels in distress, wanting to be rescued by a prince. :highly_amused:
