Yeah, I definitely think that Jaime feels some guilt about it, no doubt. But I think he certainly got caught up in the moment with killing Aerys, and couldn't take his crap anymore.

What I don't understand is how the Kingsguard remained loyal to Aerys with how batshit crazy he was. None were with Viserys, Selmy and 2 others were fighting Robert, Jaime was in KL, but the rest were with Jon???

Also, if Rhaegar would've overthrown his father and prevented everything, wouldn't the Kingsguard view Rhaegar as usurping his father of sorts, since he overthrew the "rightful king"?

Dayne, Hightower, & Whent were in Dorne.

Darry, Selmy, & Martell were at the Trident with Rhaegar.

Jamie was in the Red Keep to protect the royal family.

Viserys & his mother were left with Jonothor's brother, William, who was the Master of Arms at the Red Keep. Since his claim at the time would be 5th in line, if Lyanna was carrying Rhaegar's 3rd child, he didn't warrant the protection of the King's guard.
