Princess Charlotte not
only attended the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham this week,
but the little girl arrived at the event in style!
The Duke of Cambridge took
a do-it-yourself approach to transporting flying himself and his daughter to the
city by helicopter. As a new video shared on YouTube by Cobra
Emergency shows, the royal landed a helicopter at the Tally Ho training ground
center for West Midlands police.
Charlotte could be seen
sitting in the back seat and waving out of the window, possibly to her
mother, who appeared to be in a car that met up with the royal duo and was
not in the helicopter with them.
William is an experienced and
respected helicopter pilot, having served in the East Anglian Air Ambulance
from 2015 to 2017.
He initially learned to pilot
helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft in the RAF and went on to train as a
search and rescue pilot in 2009.
After passing his exams in
2010, he conducted 156 operations and qualified as an operational Captain.
Prince William and his only daughter obviously share a close bond and have
delighted royal watchers twice in the last few days.
On Sunday, they released a
video to social media showing the pair wishing the Lionesses luck ahead
of their 2-1 victory over Germany in the Euros final.

On Tuesday, the Princess could
be seen giving her dad a thumbs-up as they enjoyed the swimming events,
and appeared thoroughly engaged as she watched events poolside.
However, in a brief moment
during her time in her stands with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the young
royal looked distinctly unimpressed as her dad smiled for a selfie
with some fellow spectators.
Charlotte could be seen
standing to the side and shooting a doubtful glance to William as he beamed for
the group photo.
