A Viking Age brooch found in Sweden now on display at University of Lund Library Museum shows remarkable details: a winged figure with ailerons for banking, flame-like shapes where jet engines would be, and a pilot wearing what appears to be a pressure suit with solid helmet, gloves and reinforced boots. On the wrist: a device with three bumps (possibly an altimeter, fuel gauge, and timepiece according to the presenter). Note: details appear to be the presenter's interpretation of the imagery. 04:18-07:16
