Honda HondaJet News

Honda has flown the third of four HondaJet flight test aircraft set to take part in the US Federal Aviation Administration certification programme for the $4.5 million HA-420 entry-level jet.

Deliveries of the HondaJet won't begin until the second half of next year, after the Federal Aviation Administration fully certifies it.

Honda Aircraft Company has experienced a bit of turbulence with its HondaJet small private jet, but the ride appears to be a bit smoother now that a fourth example of the aircraft successfully completed its first flight last week.

Greensboro-based Honda Aircraft Co. is preparing for an upcoming business aviation conference in Geneva, Switzerland, as part of a larger plan to showcase its $4.5 million business jet to customers from around the world.

The Honda aircraft company, the maker of the $4.5-million jet, hopes to have the plane in production next year.
