In what way, the use of military helicopters to try to build up flying hours towards a private pilots licence was disclosed weeks ago? Many are questioning the value of his 'military attachments', you only have to read the comments sections in the media and indeed this -
Cynics have questioned whether the Prince's third spell in the forces - he earned his RAF pilot's wings with a fast-track flying course this spring - is much more than using the military to provide photogenic PR for the young Windsors. -

and that is one of the kinder articles.
Yes he has participated in a couple of events this past year but amazingly more in the week following the flight revelations. Do we have any evidence that he is working hard, after all, all concerned in his training have admitted the courses are tailored for him and not the normal gruelling and in depth training sessions others are subjected to.
Far from congratulating Diana or Charles for bringing up a "normal, well grounded individual", shame on them, either he is a royal OR he is normal, you can't expect to be seen as both, IMO.
Perhaps if Williams PR team had come clean about the flights escapade, ie he was trying to build up his flying hours because he has very little spare time and/or he was practising flying, landing and taking off from, in the places he is likely to in the future, then the furore would have been so much less. I believe they were misguided and economical with the truth.
