Wills cheats death: Prince's helicopter horror as a lethal drone comes within HALF A SECOND of his air ambulance in dramatic near-miss - but was it reckless or deliberate?

    The Duke of Cambridge regularly pilots Anglia Two but was not on board 
    An official report said that disaster was averted by the pilot by pure 'chance'

Wow.

Imagining him out of the succession when his mom dies and his baby becoming the Prince of Wales.

Scary.
