    Flight 666 is an amazing documentary/concert dvd. The company that put it out is called Banger Films and they are out of Toronto.

    Check out their other documentaries:

    A Headbanger's Guide to Metal (basically the history of heavy metal and its genres and sub-genres)
    Global Metal (metal being played around the world)
    Beyond the Lighted Stage (doc. about Rush)

    Wearing one of my Maiden shirts now. :geek:

    Yeah, it's funny that not only does Bruce fly the band from city to city when they're on tour, but when they're not touring, he's a pilot for a commercial airline. He says he has the job because he can't afford to buy a jumbo jet for himself so this the only way he can fly them on a regular basis.

    I love how the guys in the band have to go through security to get on their own plane.

    I have the movie Flight 666 on blu ray and it is an excelent documentry. The live footage they have is great too.

    I really like how they set it up where you can watch the movie or watch all of the songs in their entirity.

    I've been trying to find a movie theater poster for this for awhile.

    I love this movie. Nicko McBrain is a such a ridiculous, hilarious man (not to mention a brilliant drummer, too). I would gladly watch a whole film just about him.

    This topic has inspired me to put on my Live After Death vinyl. Good start to the day!

    And I planted my bolo knife in the neck of mad John Finn. I took his wretched life.
    Now I'm over near the bandstand, every hand moving on John Finn's wife...

    Crazy, but I actually saw the plane in Reykjavik, Iceland last spring. I had a layover there and as were taxiing to our gate, it was sitting at another gate. Had my eyes peeled for Bruce or any of the other dudes, but didn't see them.
