London: Days after being slammed for using Chinook to fly himself and brother Harry to a stag weekend on the Isle of Wight, Prince William is again back in news, and this time too, it is for all the wrong reasons.

Wills sparked fury on the night of April 19 after landing his 15,000 pounds-an-hour RAF helicopter in girlfriend Kate Middleton’s back garden.

“At a time when there is a lack of kit in Afghanistan and Iraq, this is a total waste of money, News of the World quoted a military source as saying.

A royal insider said: “William has been in the RAF for quite a few months and obviously wanted to show off his skills to his girlfriend. There’s nothing more macho than landing a helicopter in your girlfriend’s back yard. He clearly hasn’t lost the hunger to impress Kate.”
