Exclusive Pictures: Iron Maiden and Ed Force One at Bangalore airport

February 16, 2009 Comments Off on Exclusive Pictures: Iron Maiden and Ed Force One at Bangalore airport 536 Views

Was present to photograph Iron Maiden’s departure earlier this morning, after their smash hit concert in Bangalore.

A one on one interaction with pilot and Ed Force One Captain Bruce Dickinson during the bus ride to the airplane. Really nice guy. He said he absolutely enjoyed coming to Bangalore, the fans, and the city. Being an aviator, he really missed visiting the Aero India show, but did offer a suggestion for the Indian Air Force. Look hard at the F-16IN SuperViper, and the F/A-18 E/F SuperHornet. His friends who fly the Eurofighter Typhoon say it is just an F-16, 20 years later. Thanks Bruce and do come back in 2011.
