When Jim and I were writing The Book 20 odd years ago, I was working in Algeria and taking flights every month to/from Hassi Messaoud. Bruce Dickinson was one of the pilots flying that route for Astraeus Airlines, a small charter airline. Every flight I listened to see who the pilots were and if it was him I was going to head to the cockpit to see if he would be interviewed. Never happened. It was never him.
