Prince William gets his calling

September 17, 2008
A typical tour for a pilot in the Search and Rescue Force is 30 to 36 months where he will take part in the full range of operations, from rescuing sailors to airlifting people from flood areas.

Prince William first experienced the work of the SARF in December 2005 when he spent two weeks on work experience at the RAF Valley.
