Aero-News Quote of the Day

"The Duke of Cambridge has today started work as an employee of Bond Air Services. Over the coming months he will undertake job-specific training before he begins piloting missions for East Anglian Air Ambulance during the summer. The mandatory training will involve simulator, aircraft and in-flight skills training."
