Lanceair Aircraft Company, stylized and commonly known as LanceAIR, is a Meridonian aerospace and aircraft prodcution company headquartered at the Lanceair Complex in Marin Bay, Mahine.

Lanceair originated as the private business of Luke 'Lance' Herrold, an industrial engineer who had came into running a family-owned locomotive construction plant in Cossetton. During a trip to Valeya shortly after he inherited the plant, he became enamored with flying activities and became quick friends with Padilla brothers of Averillas, returning home and spending what was left of his fortune to convert the plant's facilities to creating aircraft. He produced his first aircraft, the Model 1915, and personally test-flew the aircraft. He worked tirelessly producing aircraft until the production of the Model 1919, which was the first commercially significant design of his company. In 1921, to keep up with growing demand, he formed Lanceair as a company in Cossetton. Lanceair grew to produce aircraft for both military and civil demands, becoming one of the largest aviation companies in Meridon, a position which it maintains today.

In modern times Lanceair primarily caters to business and general aviation markets, however it does offer many variants of its products for military utilization. Among its most popular lines of aircraft include the Monarch, Caravan, Mustang, and the Sparrow.
