1:500 IRON MAIDEN (ASTRAEUS) BOEING 757-200 “ED FORCE ONE” - SOMEWHERE BACK IN TIME WORLD TOUR 2008 – G-OJIB
As the pioneers of the British heavy metal scene, Iron Maiden are the most successful band in their genre. The band, founded in 1975, is a global phenomenon with performances in 60 countries so far.
For each of their three huge world tours in 2008, 2011 and 216, the band chartered specially designed aircraft. In allusion to her mascot Eddie called "Ed Force One", each aircraft adorned the design of the respective album and the accompanying world tour. The pilot was none other than lead singer Bruce Dickinson himself, who also works as a pilot for the charter airline Astraeus. The two Boeing 757s, which were used on the two tours in 2008 and 2011, also come from this.
On the Somewhere Back In Time tour, “Ed Force One” transported the band to a total of 90 gigs in 2008 and 2009 with a mummified “Eddie” on the tail unit. A documentation of the tour with the 757 in a central role appeared under the title "Flight 666" in cinemas worldwide.
