Tinny; That reminded me of the Frederick Forsyth book The Shepherd.

Yes Wanderin Dave,

He might be the "STIG",

Others say that he is terrified of ducks and flies only at night because of his photosensitive left albino eye, and most amazing of all, does not give any radio calls to avoid landing fees.

They say that the only indication of his passing is the display on the CARNET bowser blinking 13 continually and that only a full power shutdown for no less than 13 minutes can reset it.
