Prince Harry to teach Duchess to fly

Prince Harry is to give the Duchess of Cambridge flying lessons as she settles down to married life with her husband Prince William in Anglesey, it was reported.

Both William and Harry are qualified instructors, but the Duke of Cambridge's busy schedule means he will have little time to teach his new bride to fly.

Instead Prince Harry has offered to train his sister-in-law for a fixed wing aircraft licence while William carries out his day job as an RAF search-and-rescue pilot, it was claimed.

A Royal source told The Sun the Duchess, whose mother is a former air hostess, was "thrilled" by the offer.

Prince Harry should make an excellent teacher, having impressed Army Air Corps instructors with his flying ability in a Grob training aircraft in 2009.

The Prince, whose father and grandfather are both trained pilots, was described by his teachers as having a natural flair for flying.
