Elixir Aircraft Delivers 2 New Trainers via Aircraft Lessor in March 2026

Portugal – Elixir Aircraft, a French fourth-generation training aircraft manufacturer, has delivered two new aircraft to Luxembourg-based lessor ALD Lux, which will operate them through Omni Aviation Training Center (OATC) at its training base in Portugal, further expanding the Portuguese flight training organisation's growing Elixir fleet.

• The two deliveries bring OATC's Elixir fleet to at least four aircraft, with the school described by Elixir as having doubled its fourth-generation fleet through this transaction — reflecting the momentum of OATC's fleet modernisation programme launched in 2025.
• ALD Lux, a Luxembourg-headquartered leasing company, purchased the aircraft and is providing them to OATC for flight training operations.
• OATC is also in the process of installing a Simnest A320 FNPT II MCC simulator, announced in late 2025, further broadening the training infrastructure at its Portuguese base.
