In this case, I think you need to able to be King, like a Prez but cooler - however as it's a constitutional monarchy Prime Minister might be better to aim for. That said, you might have a few other concerns, in either role. ;)

The Norwegian aviation museum isn't going to have this at the top of their shopping list, more their swaps bag, and it's probably not worth the grief.

Pity really - claiming it's a memorial is a bit rich.

What a wonderful war memorial. I'll bet those six people who get to see it are thrilled :roll:

Check out his home page too -- there's some recent photos of the work being done on the Norwegian Skua recovery as well.
