Candidates on the course are forbidden to drink 12 hours before every flight and with several flying sessions schedule every week, they are effectively banned from touching alchol for months at a time. A source at the Army Air Corps base in Middle Wallop, Hants, told the Sun: "Harry is aware the real work starts here. If he wants to make the grade as a pilot he must make sacrifices. Helicopters and alchol don't mix, so one of the first things he will have to do is give up the booze," the paper was told. The course is so intensive that the prince may only receive one week's leave in 52, according to the source
