Has wicky seen the news :banana:

Bruce Dickinson will be combining two of his greatest passions in June, when he combines jobs as lead singer of the worlds leading metal band IRON MAIDEN and Commercial Airline pilot with Astraeus Airlines.

First Officer Bruce will fly a specially chartered real Heavy Metal Boeing 757 from London’s Gatwick airport on Tuesday 7th June into Keflavik Airport, Iceland where he will take the stage that night with Iron Maiden to play at Reykjavic’s 15,000 capacity Egilsholin Stadium as part of the bands EDDIE RIPS UP…EUROPE 2005 Stadium and Festival Tour

Special arrangements have been made to make this a very special event for up to just 192 fans – not only will they have the opportunity to get autographs and to have pictures taken with Bruce and Nicko (if he gets up in time!!!) onboard the plane or on arrival – but they will be given VIP wristband access to the stadium allowing them the opportunity of closest possible audience positioning at the front of the hall. After the blistering Maiden set passengers will be transferred back to the Airport to fly back into Gatwick for an early morning arrival on Wednesday 8th June.

Bruce says “Iceland is a great place and a terrific party town. Mind you, I'll be on the mineral waters if I'm flying the plane. We had a memorable fun trip to Dublin as a test on the last tour and l think all the fans who joined us had a terrific time. And if this goes well we will definitely do more in the future. Its good to meet the fans in a relaxed environment and hopefully Nicko and our manager Rod will join us to help serve the drinks!!”

Tickets priced £320 will include:-
- Return flight from/to Gatwick inclusive of airport taxes.
- Ground Transport from/to Airport in Iceland and Venue
- Standing Iron Maiden ticket with special standing VIP auditorium access
- Bruce will make himself available at both airports and onboard (subject to logistics), for individual photo souvenirs.
