Its actually very reassuring to know the Prince of Whales will be getting an experienced "Ship Master"!

"Ah yes.. fond memories of the Tomcat.Tomcats while a beautiful aircraft to observe was in my and many others opinion a maintenance nightmare. Requiring more maintenance hours per flight hour than any other Naval aircraft...

The Mediterranean Sea (Apr. 28, 2003) -- Sailors assigned to the “Swordsmen” of Fighter Squadron Thirty Two (VF-32) perform maintenance on an F-14 Tomcat in the hangar bay aboard USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75). Truman and Carrier Air Wing Three (CVW-3) are on deployment conducting missions in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Operation Iraqi Freedom is the multinational coalition effort to liberate the Iraqi people, eliminate Iraq's weapons of mass destruction and end the regime of Saddam Hussein.

Whales are big aquatic mammals that swim in the sea and eat krill mostly:tumblr_inline_pdksp9c0w31s9623o_540.jpg
Whereas Wales is a small country on the west side of the island of Great Britain, with lovely scenery, an obsession with male voice choirs and Rugby, and where they all speak fluent English but choose not to when the detect you aren't one of them. B*****RDs!
