We are qualified engineers, designers, test-pilots and economists, but more importantly we are all pilots. Even with our highly sophisticated design techniques, it is still the people which make Firebird Paragliders unique. Enterprises are founded and die. Unsold stock is brought to the customer via the Internet. Test pilots leave and change their employers nearly every month.
Some manufacturers develop a new glider for each competition.
The market is so confusing that people are losing faith in the future of our Sport. A Serious Development Paragliders should not be replaced every year. To get some trust in a product, the pilot must be allowed to expect the glider to be on the market for at last two years. To satisfy this, it is very important that the paragliders are completely developed and improved, before they are available on the market. There we needed more time than usual, but the result was our paragliders are really excellent.
