Dickinson airlifts Beirut evacuees
(The following post was restored from Google’s cache after the great hard drive crash of August 2006)
Iron Maiden singer and qualified pilot Bruce Dickinson airlifted 200 British citizens who had fled war torn Beirut, Lebanon back to the UK yesterday.
The 47-year-old flew a Boeing 757 to Cyprus where he picked up the evacuees and flew them back to Gatwick Airport.
A colleague says, “He was only too keen to get involved and help.
“He has a strong interest in the welfare of people caught up in international conflicts and cares about what is going on.”
I love that crazy bastard. Did I ever tell my “Bruce Dickenson saved me from security” story on the blog?
