His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, once again took to the skies for an inspection flight - and this time, it was over the capital.
According to a video posted on Instagram, Sheikh Mohamed surveyed one of the islands in Abu Dhabi from a helicopter that he piloted himself. Originally posted by @uaejj, the video shows the dynamic leader dressed in a half sleeve shirt, long shorts and a camouflage cap, while he flies over the sea and project in the emirate.
The Crown Prince had earlier carried out an inspection flight to survey the mountains. The flight was shortly after thunderstorms had lashed UAE, flooding roads and valleys around the country.
The exact date of the flight cannot be confirmed, however the video was posted recently, garnering more than 29,000 views and hundreds of comments lauding the UAE royal:
