Kate Middleton just turned a standard airplane exit into a full-on royal runway moment. With the grace and poise of a future queen, the Princess of Wales, 43, made descending eight steep steps in sky-high stilettos look like a royal breeze on Thursday, October 2, while visiting RAF Coningsby for the first time since becoming its Royal Honorary Air Commodore. In a video posted by Hello! Magazine, Kate could be seen walking backwards down the stairs with expert level precision in her four-inch pointed-toe heels, using one hand on the rail while mid-conversation.
