Elixir Aircraft, a company based in La Rochelle, was created in 2015 to meet the challenges of French light aviation. The French SME's objective: to produce safer, more economical, more environmentally-friendly and more versatile aircraft. Today, complexity is the reason why older-generation aircraft suffer from failures (technical or human) and are expensive to operate (fuel consumption and maintenance). Elixir Aircraft uses Carbon Oneshot, a technology derived from competition sailing, to simplify structures. More simplicity means fewer failures, so greater safety, but also less maintenance, and lower costs (estimates of €50/h fuel and maintenance) … At the end of 2021, Elixir Aircraft opened a new production site to internalize all carbon parts production.
