Horizon Aircraft partners with North Aircraft Industries to manufacture the wings for the Cavorite X7
Tuesday, 10 February 2026

New Horizon Aircraft Ltd. announces a partnership with North Aircraft Industries to manufacture and test the custom-engineered wings for the Company's full-scale VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft, the Cavorite X7.

North Aircraft Industries is globally recognized for its expertise in complex aerospace composite engineering, manufacturing, and testing. Its highly skilled engineering and production teams and industry-leading technologies deliver lightweight, high-strength aircraft components that enable faster, longer-range, and more efficient flight. Further differentiated for its in-house structural testing capabilities, North Aircraft Industries will conduct wing structural testing upon manufacturing completion.

"The Cavorite X7's design represents a genuinely new approach to VTOL aircraft performance and operational flexibility," stated Joost List, CEO of North Aircraft Industries. "It aligns perfectly with our strengths in advanced composite structures and integrated aerospace component development. We consider it a privilege to collaborate on a critical primary structure such as the wing, contributing our engineering, manufacturing, and testing expertise to help bring this groundbreaking aircraft closer to flight."

The Cavorite X7's novel wing architecture enables vertical takeoff and landing by opening wing covers to reveal 12 embedded electric lift fans. In forward flight, the covers close seamlessly, transforming the aircraft into an efficient, fixed-wing aircraft.

Horizon Aircraft Co-Founder and CEO Brandon Robinson stated, "Building our proprietary wing demands an exceptional composite manufacturing team with deep experience in complex structures. North Aircraft Industries has the experience, skill, and agility to keep our production of the Cavorite X7 on track. We are proud to partner once again with a leading Canadian aerospace company that will play a critical role in completing the X7 and prepare it for testing in 2027."
