Air Force Inspector General


Explanation:
According to Cappelen's Norwegian English military dictionary, the term is "Chief of the Air Force Staff", although, I prefer inspector general as it is more widely used.
Air Force Chief is also found...
Stein Erik Nodeland can be googled as well

Example sentence(s):
  • Norway’s Air Force Inspector General, Stein Erik Nodeland, was an honoured guest when he visited the Swedish Air Force Gripen Wing F21 in Luleå, Sweden at the end of February.
