Il nuovo "Ed force one"
- Autore Discussione Stefano B
- Data d'inizio
- Incidente sulla pista dell'aeroporto internazionale di Santiago del Cile per l'aereo degli Iron Maiden. L'asta del veicolo con il quale si stava rimorchiando l'aereo si è spezzata e ha lasciato il velivolo senza direzione così l'Ed Force One - questo il nome dell'aereo usato dalla band britannica heavy metal - si è scontrato con un veicolo che transitava sulla pista. A spiegarlo è lo stesso gruppo musicale sul suo sito web.
Lo scontro, spiega la band, ha provocato "grandi danni al carrello di atterraggio e a due dei motori dell'aereo, oltre a determinare il ferimento di due dipendenti dell'aeroporto, che sono stati ricoverati in ospedale". "Speriamo che recuperino in modo completo e rapito. Seguiremo da vicino l'evolversi della situazione", scrive ancora il gruppo.

A spanne, con danni del genere quanto ci vorrà per riparare?

CONCERTS IN ARGENTINA TOMORROW AND TUESDAY EXPECTED TO GO AHEAD AS PLANNED
Ed Force One was this morning tethered to a tow truck to be taken for refuelling prior to flying over the Andes to Cordoba for the next show. On moving the steering pin that is part of the mechanism that connects the ground tug to the aircraft seemingly fell out. On making a turn the aircraft had no steering and collided with the ground tug badly damaging the undercarriage, two of the aircrafts engines and injuring two ground tug operators, both of whom have been taken to hospital. We hope of course that they make a full and speedy recovery and we will be closely monitoring their progress. The flight engineers are on site and evaluating the damage, but their initial report is that the engines have suffered large damage and will require an extended period of maintenance and possibly two new engines.
We are currently making contingency arrangements to get to the show in Cordoba tomorrow with band, crew and equipment intact. Fortunately the 20 tons of equipment had not been loaded onto EF1 at the time of the accident. Although this is tragic for our beautiful plane we do not expect this to affect our concert schedule including the next 2 shows in Cordoba and Buenos Aires. And we hope to find a new Ed Force One to continue this adventure with us in the near future. We will keep everyone updated when we know more, so keep checking only on this site for official news.
To finish on a high note however, our visit to Chile was a huge success with 58,000 fans coming to the show as totally brilliant as ever in the Stadium Nacional last night. We love you guys!

:-( per quanto ne so io non verrà utlizzato per le date Italiane
Per contro l'aeromobile sarà a NYC per il concerto al Madison Square Garden Mar 30, 2016
Ma in quale Aeroporto sarà? LGA, JFK o EWR?

La star degli Iron Maden alla cloche del volo Olbia-Torino
Metto qui siccome immagino interessi soprattutto i fans degli Iron Maiden: http://www.lastampa.it/2016/08/17/c...lbiatorino-aT1OjXmXGWtGi5CMAeJO4M/pagina.html
Non sapevo che IG non operasse la TRN - OLB direttamente. Forse perché ho preso quel volo solo trentuno anni fa?

Re: La star degli Iron Maden alla cloche del volo Olbia-Torino
è una rotta storica. la ivcenda di Bruce Dickinson però non è confermata; o meglio nessuno riporta la data dell'eventuale volo e sentendo chi lavora sul piazzale nessuno si è accorto della sua presenza a bordo...Metto qui siccome immagino interessi soprattutto i fans degli Iron Maiden: http://www.lastampa.it/2016/08/17/c...lbiatorino-aT1OjXmXGWtGi5CMAeJO4M/pagina.html
