WORLD champion Red Bull Air Racer Matt Hall is in the Top End capital where he will be speaking at several City of Darwin events to commemorate the Bombing of Darwin.

The third generation pilot, former Royal Australian Air Force instructor and Bombing of Darwin commemorations ambassador met with the public at a free event at the Royal Flying Doctor Service Darwin tourist facility to share the highs and lows of his highly successful aviation career.

He said his message was that anyone could achieve the heights he had if they were willing to dream big and work hard.

“People often look at what I do and think that I’m lucky or they can’t do what I’ve done, whereas what I’m trying to convey is … it’s all about the person,” he said.

“All you’ve got to do is have a dream, structure a plan and keep focus on that dream.”

Hall will be speaking at several City of Darwin events to commemorate the Bombing of Darwin this week.
