It's Norwegian Airlines, and it has a picture of Thor Heyerdahl
 I think on it's tail.

I'm not sure whether that's its name, or is it norwegian air shuttle? i know it's norwegian!

Well, I'm not sure whether mine should count, considering I saw the exact same plane at Bergen....

Although, I don't think that's a rule.;D
