Aldinga Airshow Secures the Acclaimed Matt Hall Racing Team
Aldinga Airshow News – 24th November 2023
Excitement is reaching new heights as Matt Hall Racing confirms its participation in the upcoming Aldinga Airshow on April 7, 2024. What promises to be the biggest and best airshow ever held south of Adelaide will showcase the amazing aerobatic talent of Matt Hall and Emma McDonald.
Matt Hall, a former Red Bull Air Race World Champion and former Top Gun F15 & F/A-18 Fighter Pilot with Emma McDonald, an accomplished aerobatic pilot and aviation rising star, are set to captivate spectators with their amazing aerial manoeuvres and precision flying skills.
The Aircraft
The heart of the Matt Hall Racing Team’s performance lies in their cutting-edge aircraft. Matt Hall will take to the skies in his high-performance Extra 300L, a state-of-the-art aerobatic aircraft renowned for its agility and precision. The Extra 300L, manufactured by Extra Aircraft, is a two-seat, tandem arrangement, carbon-fibre monoplane designed specifically for unlimited aerobatic manoeuvres.
Powered by a Lycoming AEIO-580-B1A engine, the Extra 300L can reach speeds of up to 220 knots and can withstand the extreme G-forces encountered during aerobatic displays. Its sleek design and powerful engine make it the perfect canvas for Matt Hall to paint the sky with thrilling aerobatic sequences that have become his signature.
Emma McDonald will join the aerial spectacle with her own extraordinary aircraft, the Edge 540. The Edge 540 is a single-seat, high-performance aerobatic monoplane designed for unlimited aerobatic manoeuvres. Known for its exceptional roll rate and responsiveness, the Edge 540 is a favourite among aerobatic pilots worldwide.
The Display
People who have witnessed Matt Hall Racing air displays speak excitedly about their experiences. Partick Normoyle from Aldinga regularly attends numerous airshows across Australia providing Air Traffic Control support. “People can expect amazing sights, sounds and extreme aerobatics. The speeds these aircraft perform at is just extraordinary.” Patrick said.
In a recent visit to Aldinga Airport Matt Hall said that he expects to pull up to 12 g in some manoeuvres. That is 12 times the force of gravity! And much more than the design limit of a F18 Hornet at 7.5 g.
To complement the Matt Hall Racing Team’s participation at the airshow, there will be a Red Bull Air Racing Tent and promotions. This whole spectacle will be awe-inspiring.
