Being the king of any country is not an easy task, because the responsibilities of this position and meeting people, etc. are very demanding. But one such ruler took time out for his secret part-time job, and for the whole 21 years that no one knew. William Alexander is king of the Netherlands, and he recently revealed that he had been a pilot in KLM (Aviation Company) for 21 years, during which he took flights twice a month.

Interviewing Dutch newspaper De Telegraph, 50-year-old king decides to fly giving them the chance to be relieved of their royal duties. He said you have a plane, a passenger, and a staff that are your responsibility. You cannot take your problems on earth to the heavens, but you have to focus your attention on something else, for me, that was the quietest part of the job. He has been a guest pilot for the Fokker aircraft included in the KLM battery, while now training to fly the Boeing 737. By the way, people knew the passion of flying their aircraft, but it was the first time that they were regularly employed as a pilot. The Dutch king never used his name while announcing on the fly, but most people were unable to recognize him even when he was seen wearing a uniform and company hat.
