See, this is what happens when you’re a rock star who fails to die young: you end up doing something in aviation, or in Wales. Or, if you’re Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson, I guess you do both, and depress everybody who remembers when you were still cool.
This is the exact opposite of a guitar solo.
Dickinson is a qualified commercial pilot, and has been flying for about 20 years – because apparently being Iron Maiden’s frontman wasn’t enough. He he’s heading an aviation company, Cardiff Aviation Ltd, which will be based at the Twin Peaks Hangar at St Athan, Vale of Glamorgan, on lease from the Welsh government.
Said Dickinson in an interview,
We’re coming into this enterprise with the knowledge that we’ll also be bringing business to south Wales.
South Wales has long had an association with the aircraft industry and I am delighted that I am able to have a small part in the continuation of that tradition.
Dickinson then did not do anything especially metal like chug a bottle of bourbon or bleed all over his guitar, but we can dream.
The business should bring about a hundred jobs into the area.
