Crossword Genius

Boss in Boeing over Norway (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

governor

'boss' is the definition.
(governor can mean someone's boss)

'in boeing over norway' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'GOVERNOR' is hidden within 'boeing over norway'.

(Other definitions for governor that I've seen before include "Regulator; father" , "Device that controls, speed of an engine" , "Official in charge of prison" , "employer" , "warden" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
