Taken from the Salt Lake Tribune:

"MAIDEN VOYAGE

Passengers of Iceland Express airline may get a surprise when they hear the voice of their captain over the loudspeaker. It just might be Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson. Besides fronting the heavy metal group, Dickinson also flies for the company -- much to the pleasant surprise of passengers who recognize him when he introduces himself as the pilot. A spokesman for Iceland Express tells the Iceland Review Dickinson really flies for British airline Astraeus, which Iceland Express leases planes from. Unfortunately, the spokesman says Dickinson will be grounded until the fall while he is busy touring with his band this summer."

I'd love to be on one of those planes. He should play Aces High the whole flight.
