His Majesty At Work

Many wonderful Dutch call The Netherlands home, including King William Alexander. The member of the royal family is not just that; he is also a licensed pilot who secretly flies himself to his destination! In 1989, he was granted additional authorization to operate multi-engine jet aircraft.

The king was presented with his Military Pilot’s Licence courtesy of his grandfather, Prince Bernhard, in 1994. Furthermore, King William was honored with his Airline Transport Pilot Licence eight years later. To sharpen his skills, he occasionally served as a guest pilot for KLM Cityhopper. How cool is this guy, right?
