The MX2… the aircraft that puts the “Ultimate” into Ultimate Airshows
Rob Holland is no stranger to flying the most challenging and most exciting aircraft in the world of aerobatics. Rob flies the incredible MX2 from MX Aircraft in North Carolina USA..
The MX2 is a 385+ horsepower masterpiece powered by the Lycoming AEIO-540 Aerobatic Engine that gives airshow fans a whole new perspective at what an aircraft can do. The MX2 can pull a G-load of plus and minus 16 G’s — that means tighter turns and loops and a whole variety of maneuvers that will redefine the word “aerobatic”. The MX2 can roll at an astronomical 400+ degrees per second, where viewers will see only a blur.
The MX2 is constructed entirely of pre-impregnated epoxy carbon fiber composite material that is of the highest grade. With the maneuvers that Rob will take the aircraft through, quality and safety is of primary importance. Read more about the amazing MX2 at the MX Aircraft Website.
