That is possibly the most talented pilot on the planet at this time.
You could have walked out the hatch of that cargo plane and stood on his nose!
Oh he is just a Norwegian!
it remains me of reading a book about tu-22 bombers written by some ex-belarusian pilot who used to remember how it was easy to spot which nationality of the NATO planes that shaddowed them were... Americans alledgedly where really strictly tied to the instructions of the upper commands and always seemed to follow orders by some other identity than the pilot themselves. Britons were chivalry and gentlemens who never submitted themselves to "boyish" playing with their planes and always greeted and saluted the Soviet Pilots... and Norwegians were the ones who could fly their F-16s in to bomb bays of the Tupolevs if you kept them open too invitingly
