I don't really see anything wrong here. Based on a limited acquaintance with the breed, he sounds like a fighter pilot: aggressive, proud, and with a limited tolerance for lesser mortals. I have never met a humble aviator, much less a humble fighter pilot.

And often we'd refer to that personality type as an *sshole. I found the interview illuminating when he gave it, I could see him pulling the trigger in a hurry.

Two asides, this article, note the article describes him as participating in the "infamous 1981 raid on the Iraqi nuclear reactor". And in the other that Spector was dismissed from the IAF for protesting Israel's policy of targeted killings.
