King as a part-time airline pilot

Associated Press “Dutch king reveals he held part-time job as airline pilot” https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/may/17/dutch-king-willem-alexander-admits-to-working-part-time-as-an-airline-pilot


ウィレム=アレクサンダー和蘭国王が20年以上に亙って、皇太子業/国王業の傍ら、月2回のペースでKLMの副操縦士として勤務していたことを明らかにした。


“You have an aircraft, passengers and crew. You have responsibility for them,” the king told De Telegraaf. “You can’t take your problems from the ground into the skies. You can completely disengage and concentrate on something else. That, for me, is the most relaxing part of flying.”
KLMの制服を着て空港の中を歩いていても、正体がばれることはなかったという。
