Honda showcases its first private jet
July 28, 2010
Honda has been showcased its first private jet at the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh. The company says that the model will be flying at the end of the year.
HondaJet is the first venture of the auto manufacturer to aviation. The brand is commonly associated with automobiles and motorcycles. The brand says that it will also bring its manufacturing innovations to the jet industry.
Unlike most jets, Honda’s design mounts the engine above the wing—which will allow for drag reduction, noise reduction, and fuel efficiency, according to the company.
Honda says that its jet factory will be completed by 2011 and they expect to fulfill first deliveries by 2012.
