PARAGLIDERS, HANG GLIDERS AND LIGHTWEIGHT MICROLIGHTS! |  |
SIMON MURPHY'S FLYING CIRCUS IS BACK!
It will be a few days before the website properly reflects the fact, but I've reverted to a previous business name! I've chaged because I prefer the old name, and it better reflects the nature of the business - now in it's 32nd year. ONLY the name has changed! Note that all payments should be to Simon Murphy's Flying Circus, please.
WELCOME TO ONE OF THE LIVELIEST FREE FLIGHT WEBSITES. THE LAST UPDATE WAS AT 1230hrs ON THURSDAY 4.12.08.
I have implemented the lower VAT rate, so you will only pay 15% on goods purchased. However, the prices on the site have not been updated yet - it will happen over the next few days.
I am also resisting overdue price increases caused by the fall in the value of the pound against the Euro, which are currently around 5%. I hope to maintain old prices until at least the New Year, in support of the Government's initiatives to keep the economy afloat. Dangerous times!
I have a huge new batch of Glideriders available from stock - Singles and Doubles!
PLEASE NOTE: The Australian dollar has fallen against sterling, and prices we charge for Moyes gliders may actually be appreciably lower than those quoted on this site. The rate is fluctuating wildly, but at the time of writing this there should be a 10% reduction. Check the rates with us before ordering!
Given the unholy mess in the financial world at the moment, we are selling all imported items on the basis of Prices Ruling At Time of Delivery. Please note that this is the case! If you have any money left, you might be wise to invest it in something solid, that you can keep at home! Hey, why not buy some flying kit? We have plenty for you to choose from.

Demand continues to exceed production, but right no (15.10.08) We have stock of everything. Normally some models are sold out - call for the latest situation. This can only get worse now Steve Uzochukwu's test report is in Skywings - he is very impressed - these CoMos make traditional instruments look and feel gross!

Rob Dowdell Chairman (and ex Secretary) of the RNHPC (for the last 15 years!)
"Firebird UK has supplied the Royal Navy HG & PG Club with a whole range of equipment over the 20 years of the Club's existence - varios, radios, tow releases, parachutes, harnesses and recently our 3 Litespeed-S and 2 Sonic hang gliders. They have also been our annual hang glider servicing agent for the last 2 years - we moved to FBUK after the demise of the Joint Services maintenance facility at Crickhowell. Simon and Martyn have provided us with a top notch facility since and as a result I am certain that our Club members are using equipment that is in perfect condition. There is no doubt that Firebird are streets ahead of the other suppliers that we have dealt with in the past in terms of quality of service - well done guys we intend using you for the next 20 years at least! Fly Navy."
