FREE FLIGHT EQUIPMENT SINCE 1976! |  |
WELCOME TO SIMON MURPHY'S FLYING CIRCUS!
This site was last updated on February 8th 2010.
We've had quite a bit of flying around these parts to start 2010, although I have managed to miss most of it! I'm heavily into glider servicing at the moment, so am out of the office quite a bit. Use the answerphone or email to get hold of me quickly.
See the NEWS section to find out what I was doing in Court last December....

The SALE!! |  |
| You should check out the January Sale page, because some items are selling out, even though I'm not around to ship them! Some items are half price, and rather a lot are a third off. None of it is rubbish so this is a good chance to get a real bargain. How about a big discount off a very limited number of Charly No Limit Jet helmets in Blue? There are a few available, because I ordered rather a lot, and then duplicated the order in error. Durrrrr... |
Having been in the business for an unsurpassed 33 years, I have accumulated an impressive array of distributorships featuring some of the World’s leading Free-Flight brands.
My enduring passion for hang gliding meant that, when more hard-headed businesses just switched over to paragliding, I took the decision to continue with both disciplines
I tend to be very loyal to my brands, and have been with most of them for more than ten years. Currently, we are the sole UK Distributors for:- |  |
 | > FIREBIRD: Paragliders and equipment.
> MOYES DELTA GLIDERS: Hang Gliders and harnesses
> NORTH WING: Hang Gliders
> CHARLY: Crash helmets, Harnesses, Reserves and Accessories
> RENSCHLER: Instruments for Free Flight and Radio-controlled sailplanes
> VON BLON: Hang gliding harnesses
> GLIDERIDER: Hang glider rack supports (World distributors)
> ZOOT: Free Flight accessories (World Distributors)

Thoughout 2008 and 2009 we struggled to satisfy demand for the Renschler CoMo range of instruments. CoMos make traditional instruments look and feel gross, which means that they have instantly taken on the usual Renschler cult status. We now have the CoMo Solar GPS, which is a totally unique concept. Even with the solar panel, this instrument is only about the same size as a normal instrument!

Here are a few flattering comments that have been made by some of our customers in recent months. It's good to have friends!
Keith Worsdell (ex-Chairman of the mighty Dunstable Club):
"Just to let you know I have received the camera mount, really pleased with it.

Patrick Joyce (USA)
I wanted to say thanks, the Gliderider is truly awesome. Not only did it survive the 5500km journey from Nevada to Alaska, it proved itself as a dependable workhorse. Thanks!
Keith Owen:
It has been a real pleasure dealing with you. Very, very professional service from start to finish. When it's time for me to purchase again you will be the first port of call.
Markus Kinch:
My holiday plans seemed to be in shatters, as I looked down onto my broken glider after a heavy landing days before leaving for my foreign trip - but thanks to Simon and his amazing Moyes stock my fears where groundless. Laragne here I come!

"Simon is the funniest man I have ever met."
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."
