Ah yes the Maiden machine. Capt Bruce Dickinson flys the 757 for Astraeus Airlines, who that one belongs to. He made that awesome discovery series, "Flying Heavy Metal" a must watch for those who haven't seen it.
There were a few vids on youtube of him flying fans to shows in that machine, all in capt uniform etc then get there change into some boganistic type stuff the go on stage and perform one hell of a show !

That guy is nothing short of an absolute legend if I may say so...


Weren't they doing a show in chch ?? I guess they be flying it down, if anyone gets some photos of it there put em up

Wow. I really want one of those at Wellington. That looks like a late take-off??

Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.

P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.

Cool Shot! Looks just like a long exposure to me.

Heres a few Id like to share, from my trip to NZ. Stopped off on the way home in AKL before my flight. I met up with d3fai13r in AKL, and we took a few photos from the carpark before I caught my flight. The other photos are from inflight on EK413 AKL-SYD, when we were in AKL airspace smile.gif

I used 30 second Shutter speed, Aperture 8 and ISO 200. I also like the picture because there are the car light trails at the bottom of the picture.

Good to see a new livery out of Auckland- my mate's Mrs was the purser on that flight. Apparently it went AKL-SYD-AKL-OOL-AKL today.
