A division of the Priestly Hunt Aircraft Corporation was formed in mid-1956 at Culver City, California, to acquire the assets of Culver Aircraft Corporation which became bankrupt in 1946.

Produced remanufactured and turboprop-engined conversion of Convair 340, 440 and 580 series transports, as Super 580.
Since 2012, Supair have owned their own brand of paraglider, developed by, amongst others, Pierre-Yves Alloix (formerly with Escape).
Laurent Chiabaut was on his own at the helm of Supair since the loss of Pierre Bouilloux.
Supair, the French manufacturer which was initially known for its harnesses, then its reserves, has bought the Czech brand Gradient. Gradient is one of the best known makes of wings, but for some time now they seem to have been economically stifled.
The Gradient brand and models will continue to be developed in parallel to the Supair wings and Ondrej Dupal will remain fully active.
