Soon after the IV was introduced, Neibauer started work on a simpler fixed-gear version that emerged as the Lancair ES.

Prominent among the homebuilt market was Lancair, and in 1994 NASA and others encouraged Neibauer to develop an FAA-certified aircraft.

Deciding to focus on the Columbia models, in March 2003 Neibauer sold the kit side of the company to Joseph Bartels, a Louisiana attorney and Lancair IV-P builder and owner.

Neibauer sold the kit-build portion of the company, Lancair International, to Joseph Bartels in March 2003.

The 200 was quickly replaced by the Lancair 235, equipped with the slightly more powerful Lycoming O-235.

The Lancair designs provided the highest performance in the single-engine GA class, and as the kit-build market was dominated by pilots looking to outperform existing " off-the-shelf " designs, the Lancair's kits sold well.

The new Lancair LC-40 was based on the fixed-gear ES.

The Lancair Company was formed as a separate entity on 7 April 2000, and Pacific Aviation Composites was merged into The Lancair Company on 4 May 2000.

The latest kit model is the Lancair Evolution, which was unveiled at Sun ' n Fun at Lakeland Linder Regional Airport, FL on April 8, 2008.

On February 3, 2012, Appleton was killed while attempting an emergency landing in a Lancair IV-PT experimental-category, four-seat, turboprop airplane at the Boise Airport in Boise, Idaho, moments after taking off.

The airport was the site of a fatal accident on February 22, 2006, involving a Lancair Columbia 400 piloted by a private pilot.

The ES was a version of the unpressurized Lancair IV with fixed landing gear.

Originally intended simply to spread out production of the existing Lancair aircraft product lines, the new factory was rechristened Lancair Certified and was used as the main site for what was then known as the Lancair LC-40, for " Lancair Certified, model 40 ".

However, a naming conflict forced the design to be re-christened, finally going on sale in 1985 as the Lancair 200.

An example of high-end homebuilt design is Lancair, which has developed a number of high-performance kits.

Better design techniques developed in the 1980s largely mitigated this penalty and leading edge cuffs are used on current high performance light aircraft like the Cirrus SR20 and Lancair Columbia.

A leading kit manufacturer, Lancair's high performance Lancair IV design set a number of records, including a long-range flight at 360 – mph.

Lancair Certified was renamed Columbia Aircraft Manufacturing Corporation in 2005 to focus on the new design.

In May 2002, Erik Lindbergh honored the 75th anniversary of his grandfather's historic flight, by re-tracing the flight across the Atlantic in a small single engine aircraft, a Lancair Columbia 300 dubbed The New Spirit of St. Louis which cost USD $ 289, 000.

Along with the Glasair series, the early Lancair designs were among the first kitplanes to bring modern molded composites construction to light aircraft.

Lancair International, Inc. ( pronounced ‘ lance-air ’) is a U. S. manufacturer of general aviation aircraft kits.

These efforts culminated in the Lancair IV, a four-seat optionally pressurized ( IV-P ) single-engine aircraft with a high cruise speed.

On February 3, 2012, the CEO, Steve Appleton, died in a small Lancair plane crash in Boise, Idaho.

Re-engined versions quickly followed ; the Lancair 320 with the 150 hp Lycoming O-320, and the Lancair 360 with the 180 hp Lycoming O-360.

A Lancair 320 appeared in a 1995 exhibit at the New York Museum of Modern Art.

The company became Lancair International with the move.

As of August 1998, according to Flight International, Lancair had sold 1, 400 kits, 300 of them the Lancair IV model.

Bartels had already formed Aero Cool to sell air conditioners for the various Lancair models.

Bartels has continued sales of the latest Lancair designs, including the IV and IV-P, ES and ES-P, and the Legacy and fixed-gear Legacy FG.

The Lancair Legacy is the latest version of the original two-seaters, offering increased interior size and even higher performance.
