Honda Jet HA-420 info wanted
 
I just read the Flying magazine article on the Honda Jet light jet .
I saw this aircraft at Oshkosh last year , very impressive .
Who is flying it ? How much is the type rating ? It's a 1200 mile airplane according to the article I read . Anyone that is flying this jet care to expound on it ? Curious how it stacks up against the Embraer
Phenom light jets ???

I recently met one of the Honda test pilots. I don't know how active he is on here, but I'll try to remember to mention your post to him when I see him next week.

Certainly looks fun to fly.... The cabin looks very comfortable and I like that Garmin G3000 too. You could just sit back and relax with that automation up front.

I am still not sold on the engine placements from a ramp presence perspective which, critically, is important to many would-be status-conscious buyers............... :eek::eek:
