For their world tour “Book of Souls”, which started in 2016 and took the British hard rock and heavy metal band to concerts on six continents, Iron Maiden upgraded itself to “Queen of the Skies” with a Boeing 747-400. Again with front man Bruce Dickinson in the cockpit, he first had to train and obtain approval to fly the 180-ton jumbo jet. Compared to the Boeing 757s that were used on the two previous tours, the larger aircraft offered considerably more space for the band and crew, a greater range and a larger cargo space, which also enabled the stage equipment to be loaded and unloaded more quickly. In the booklet for the “Book of Souls” album, the titles of the respective tracks were translated into today's Yucatec Maya language and drawn as hieroglyphics. The two song titles "If Eternity Should Fail" and "Speed of Light" were also transferred to the 747's tail unit. In the “Ed Force One” model series, the two Boeing 757s, with which the band went on tour in 2008 and 2011, are also available in a scale of 1: 500 (item no. 535250 and 535267).
