The singer.. Bruce Dickinson now is a full time commercial pilot & part time singer.. He is a first officer at an airline called Astraeus. Bruce flies Boeing 757s. Even now he's having his own series on Discovery Channel about all plane in the world and then try to drive the plane himself.. Yeah... look like his is a good pilot..

 

For its Somewhere Back In Time world tour, Dickinson navigate the chartered jet, nicknamed "Eddie" after its zombie mascot, 80,000 kilometres in 49 days from India to Australia, around South America before finishing in North America.

I am sure you must have seen the new liveried Jet Airways 737-800s. Here is what the interiors look like: :pardon:

Both Economy & Business Class have touchscreen PTVs with full AVOD! The selection of movies & other audio and video programs was quite good.

Excellent shots TK. You seem to have made the most of your short visit to BOM! :clapping:

 

Next time, come on a holiday and not on duty, so that you can spend more time spotting :pardon:

 

Looking forward to more shots from you.....
