Pyrotechnic spectaculars for Weddings, Parties, Corporate Events, Funerals/Ashes to Heaven, Gender Reveals and Airshows

The Pilots of the Purple Twilight offer unique aerial pyrotechnic spectaculars for special events. Our highly experienced display pilots will tailor their displays to your event whether it is large or small. We can offer displays for weddings, parties and corporate events held at a wide variety of locations and if suitable can even land to meet and greet your guests.

Our aircraft have been specially modified for pyrotechnic displays and have been certified by the relevant aviation regulators. As part of the O’Brien’s Flying Circus team we are also members of the British Air Display Association.

Brendan O’Brien

Brendan’s ancestry in Ireland goes back to the seventeenth century with Huguenot immigration from France. Although his formative years were spent in London in a quiet family environment, everything changed dramatically when he was orphaned in his early teens and began a life of travel and adventure.

As a child he had been fascinated by birds and perhaps flying was in his blood from birth. Not surprising then that the world of aviation beckoned initially with ballooning and gliding before he was seduced by powered flight.

Now, more than forty years later Brendan has over fourteen thousand hours on over three hundred plus types of aircraft and holds a licence to fly every kind of flying machine.

I am a CAA authorised display pilot with over 1000 flying hours in a variety of different flying machines. I hold licences for helicopters, fixed wing aeroplanes, and hot air balloons, with experience in many other forms of aviation including paragliders, autogyros and gliders.

I am also a flying instructor for fixed wing aircraft and microlights.

Currently, I am building my own single seat aircraft.

I am available for public and private shows providing both static and airborne displays tailored exclusively for you and your event making it a special and memorable occasion
