A French aircraft maker is quietly stepping into one of aviation's most enduring markets — the training of new pilots — bringing with it a two-tier strategy that speaks to both immediate demand and longer ambition. Elixir Aircraft is introducing its Elixir+ line to American flight schools while simultaneously developing the larger Equinox trainer, a pairing that suggests the company sees not just a gap to fill but a ladder to build. In a sector where reliability and longevity matter as much as performance, this entry is less a disruption than a patient wager on the future of flight education.
