Airman coming from Scandinavia to Russia (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aviator

'airman' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'from scandinavia to russia' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'AVIATOR' can be found hidden inside 'scandinavia to russia'.

'coming' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for aviator that I've seen before include "Pilot of plane" , "Flyer in early days of planes" , "Flyer, pilot" , "One flying aircraft" , "Woman in a flying machine" .)
