As the cheesy title goes, we might wonder what is it exactly, but the truth is as simple as that, Iron maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson is working on to build Airplanes with his aviation company ‘Cardiff Aviation‘ that he founded.

Professionally he’s been pilot for more than 25 years now and he also flew the giant flight 666 with iron maiden on a world tour, Now he plans to build an airline fleet of up to 10 aircraft within a few years and fill a market niche from its 132,000-square-foot hangar in St. Athan, Wales. He also plans to refurbish old unused planes or sublease them and fly them with his own pilots. A man with more than 7000 hours worth of flying time experience certainly knows his stuff well. And we metalheads welcome it of course.

Cardiff Aviation will provide the plane and pilots on ad hoc charters in Europe—”wet leasing” in industry jargon—and then fly the planes south for the winter to Asia to offer the same service to customers there
