With a Fistful of Orders, Can a Small French Upstart Beat the Odds?
French LSA manufacturer Elixir kicked off its own AirVenture week with a flurry of happenings, one after the other. While surrounded by so many ambitious sport planes - some survivors, some successes, but a whole lot of ghosts - it makes you wonder just how high they’re aiming. Happily humming with a few hundred orders in hand, Elixir announced to the world that they will be undergoing yet another upgrade to its manufacturing facilities, targeting an ambitious total of pumping out 300 brand spankin’ new LSA’s per year.
