We widened our air-show activities all over the world (UAE, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand).
Muroya started training under the auspices of Red Bull with the aim to participate in the Red Bull Air Race and participated in FAI World Grand Prix [Haute Voltige] in Motegi Japan, too (Unlimited, Fly with music) alongside the world's top solo pilots.
In 2009, Bridge between the ground and sky
It was formally announced what he would enter the Red Bull Air Race.
In Japan, Muroya organized the first Japanese aerobatic competition to help people wanting to fly aerobatics, while also setting it up as a safety training program with the aim of opening the sky up to people who want to participate in sky sports.
Until now, Muroya has held some 170 air-shows over 12 years without incident and he will continue to strive for excellence in airmanship at the highest level. Also by making himself as a bridge between the ground and sky he hopes to make sky sports more accessible as popular participation sports for more people.
