HondaJet Program Update Shared At EBACE 2015

The Aircraft Makes Its First Appearance In Europe

Honda Aircraft Company announced progress and HondaJet program achievements during a press conference Monday at the 2015 European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE) in Geneva, Switzerland. The HondaJet is making its first appearance in Europe and will begin a demonstration tour following EBACE 2015.

The European demonstration tour follows a successful tour in Japan to cultivate awareness for business aviation. The HondaJet was featured at public and private events at six airports with flight demonstrations. More than 10,000 people had the opportunity to see the world’s most advanced light jet in Japan.

“We have been extremely pleased with the performance and reliability of the HondaJet during the world tour and are excited to bring the aircraft to Europe,” said Honda Aircraft Company President and CEO Michimasa Fujino. “On its flight routes to Japan and Europe, the aircraft experienced a range of conditions, and the HondaJet is demonstrating its maturity and readiness for entry into service.”

The HondaJet on static display at EBACE 2015 is an early production aircraft featuring the signature HondaJet paint scheme in red with a silver stripe. It achieved its first flight in March 2015 and will travel more than 26,000 nautical miles as part of the world tour.

Immediately following the show, Honda Aircraft will begin a demonstration tour with HondaJet dealers in Europe. Private demonstration flights will be offered in Poland (Warsaw); United Kingdom (Cambridge, Birmingham, Leeds and Farnborough); Germany (Mönchengladbach, Munich and Hamburg); and Switzerland (Geneva).

HondaJet production steadily continues at Honda Aircraft Company’s world headquarters in Greensboro, North Carolina, where manufacturing is preparing for first deliveries. Three production HondaJets have flown so far and another 20 are in production flow. Deliveries are scheduled to begin after final FAA type certification is achieved.
