Nick Mason is putting his flying credentials to excellent use,
alongside fellow qualified pilot Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) in an
upcoming charity auction.
The duo are offering
listeners to Terry Wogan’s breakfast show on BBC Radio 2 the
opportunity to fly with them to the Royal International Air Tattoo at
RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire next summer, as part of the BBC's
regular fundraiser "Children In Need".
There will also be
the opportunity to join Wogan’s Breakfast Show colleague and voice of
the National Lottery, Alan Dedicoat, on a flight aboard a piece of
military ‘heavy metal’ courtesy of the Royal Air Force. In the evening
the winning bidder and their partner will be among the special guests
at the prestigious Royal International Air Tattoo Gala Dinner followed
by a night at one of the most exclusive hotels in the Cotswolds –
Cowley Manor.
The
following day, they will be treated to a VIP behind-the-scenes tour of
the Air Tattoo - including a visit to the Air Traffic Control Tower - a
flight in their own luxury jet courtesy of US aircraft manufacturers
Gulfstream, plus they will have the chance to meet the world’s greatest
aerobatics display team, the Royal Air Force Red Arrows.
A spokesman for the
Air Tattoo said: “We’ve been associated with the BBC’s Children in Need
appeal for a number of years and we are delighted to be in a position
to take part once again. We are extremely grateful to Bruce and Nick
for joining forces with us for what is a dream package for rock fans
who have a passion for aircraft or aviation enthusiasts who love rock
music.”
Last November, a couple from Surrey bid £40,000 for a VIP visit to this year’s Air Tattoo.
More details of the BBC's Children In Need can be found at www.BBC.co.uk/pudsey.
UPDATE: The top bid for this very special package was for
£40,000. We hope to have some exclusive pictures of the event, for all
you BD readers!
