SPOTIFY NEWS – Iron Maiden‘s Boeing 747 is ready to fly again after being severely damaged on tour. Getting the plane back in the sky has not been easy. Each replacement engine had to be flown thousands of miles across the world. But the band says their “beloved” plane will now join the tour in Brazil. Getting the plane fixed sounds like a military operation.

When the plane arrives in Brazil, it will once again be loaded up with the band’s 20 tonnes of equipment and jet off for the rest of the Book of Souls World Tour. Bruce Dickinson is Iron Maiden’s singer and also flies the plane. “The speed and thoroughness of this incredibly complex operation were stunning, and we are so very pleased to get our plane back!” he said.
