BJT visited Greensboro, North Carolina, where HondaJets are made, and we flew the new HondaJet Elite. We’re going to show you what makes the Elite different from the original HondaJet and also focus on some features that make the new model unique in the light jet market.

@Nowhere Man German and Japanese cars are what they are because the engineers were in the military aviation sector. After the war, they employed their expertise to terrestrial vehicles. As well they were also driven by other factors to rebuild the country's economy. Consumer mindsets are different in those countries as well.

Great to let you know that I had my First opportunity to flying in The Honda jet as SIC from takeoff to Landing. This was the most beautiful experience in my history of Aviation that was asked to come along side my friend to see how everything works in Climb out and to Cruise speeds and all of the Navigation systems that were built to work with any Single pilot and We filed for FL230 to White Plains, NY and you have to always stay ahead on everything including ATC communication and preparing for your approach by the pushing of a button and I can say that I know now that I've been given this one the best of the best small class Business flights I've ever taken besides the Lear 25 that I would choose the Honda Jet as one of my favorites.

@@chaleco82 Thank you so much for correcting my ignorance. I have not studied it in depth, and came out with a cursory, quick evaluation in today's frantic paced world. I was south of having the truth. Thank goodness for the correction. As an aside, per Scotty Kilmer, I still will buy a Toyota or Honda car or minivan, and boycott North American cars. There might be some good North American cars, but I have to make a statement to penalize them for the discretions of poor design. I buy gasoline at independent gas stations just to protest the big petro companies, even if it's just 2 or 3 cents per litre less, and the little guys buy fuel from the big guys, excepting 'Husky'. Husky is a 'little' guy, with it's own refineries. Correction on this is welcome. I live in Mississauga, Ontario. Aarre Peltomaa

@MichaelM-to4sg 3 жыл бұрын

Except it still has limited range. Compared to SETP alternatives like TBM940, Epic E1000GX, PC12NGX and the coming Denali, they all offer substantial improvement in range. I appreciate the 20% better cruise speed as acceptable trade-off for added fuel, insurance & maintenance costs. The limited range however limits that speed gain to shorter regional flights. Our common mission of 4 persons w/2 dogs flying from BDU (Boulder, CO) -UUU (Newport, RI) would require a refuel along route, not required w/these SETP’s. That kills any in-air speed advantage. It’s a common failure of all VLJ designs. Until Embraer, Cessna or Honda can address this issue, SETP’s will continue to dominate this sector.

@atruebrit6452 4 жыл бұрын

I think I profoundly hate the expression: "punches well beyond its weight class". It's up there with "a great bang for the buck", "you should take it with a grain of salt" and "it blows it out of the water". Conformistic mediocre pretentious-wannabe attitude on the speaker's side that hurts my intellect. Good examples of wooden language. And for anyone who does not know what that is: "the dead pretentious language [...], dressed up to disguise poverty of thought and, often, the absence of any real meaning."
