Bruce Dickinson Flies Troops Home From Afghanistanadded: 01/09/2008
Is there anything that this man can't do?
It has been revealed in Peterborough Today, Bruce Dickinson was the pilot on a very special
flight to bring troops who had been serving in Afghanistan for 7 months back to the UK.
Speaking about the whole incident, Squadron Leader 'Albert' Finney has said: "I wanted to speak to the captain because we are not used to handling such large aircraft, and I needed to check he was happy with the taxi-plan. The captain happened to be Bruce Dickinson."
"I knew he flew for Astraeus, but what were the chances of him being the pilot? He was as proud as punch at flying the lads and wanted to tell me all about his Boeing 757."
Iron Maiden have just wrapped up their 'Somewhere In Time' world tour.
