ok.co.ukPrince William has met a road crash survivor who was saved by William and his former air ambulance crew mates.The heir to the throne invited Jack Beeton to Windsor Castle after he received a letter from the crash survivor’s girlfriend, saying her partner had thanked all the crew from the East Anglian Air Ambulance (EAAA) personally apart from him.
William was an EAAA helicopter pilot for two years until 2017, and wrote a public letter about his experiences when his role came to an end, saying pitching in with crewmates to save Mr Beeton’s life gave him the “determination to keep going”.
