The Sky Is Not The Limit

The action-packed true story of Australia's own top gun pilot, Matt Hall, THE SKY IS NOT THE LIMIT takes us from Matt's beginnings as a young boy growing up in Newcastle, with not much focus or ambition, to the discovery that his destiny lay in the skies. It tells how he cracked a place in the highly disciplined and demanding RAAF training program, a gruelling mental and physical school where being an excellent pilot is just the starting point to success. When he eventually graduated it was to great acclaim - but it was also on the eve of September 11.
Matt's first assignment out of school was to fight in the Battle of Baghdad, where he would for the first time experience real fear, death and loss.
After the war - and almost on a whim - he entered the Red Bull Air Race, the most competitive air race in the world. Despite a spectacular crash on the water, he finished in third place, becoming the first rookie to ever stand on the podium.
Now flying for himself, Matt Hall has become one of the best known pilots in the world of aviation. His story is a rare glimpse into a normally closed off world, where skill, quick thinking and a cool head can mean the difference between life and death.
