Iron Maiden Boeing 747-400

For the Book of Souls World Tour that started in 2016 and took the band to six continents, Iron Maiden upgraded to the “Queen of the Skies”, a Boeing 747-400. Again piloted by front-man Bruce Dickinson, he had to train and receive type-rating to be able to fly the 180-ton jumbo jet. Compared to the Boeing 757s used on the two previous tours, the larger aircraft offered considerably more space for the band and crew, a longer range and also a much larger cargo hold to more quickly load and unload the stage equipment. _x000D_In the booklet accompanying the “Book of Souls” album, each track was translated in today’s Yucatec Maya language and drawn in hieroglyphs. Two of the song titles, “If Eternity Should Fail” and “Speed of Light” were also applied onto the tail of the 747._x000D_This special edition, made of die-cast metal, sports several extraordinary features, such as individually inserted landing lights or landing gear held by magnets which can be removed to emphasize the elegance of the jumbo jet when in flight. A sturdy metal display stand is included.
