Flying the $5 Million Honda Jet - The Cheapest Private Jet? 

Great plane, can't wait for the the Type R version.

The Honda jet is a beautiful and revolutionary aeroplane. By attaching the engines to the wings the weight of the engines contributes to bending relief for the wings during flight. I have been an aeronautical engineer for 37 years and I have always been impressed by the Honda Jet. And I drive a Honda Civic-which has been the most reliable and durable car I have had. It has never leaked oil, doesn't burn oil. And it has travelled 257,000km. Honda have always been very talented at making excellent machines that are very nice to use, and are also very reliable and perform very well too. I have also been hearing many nice reports about the Honda Jet from engineers and pilots.

When I read Honda jet I thought of safety and quality right away. I like it, it's the same size of a Honda Odyssey.. although the Odyssey has more buttons on the dashboard than this jet. Thank you Sam and good luck with your piloting career.

In the late 1990's Honda went into development on this jet. I had the privilege of providing part of the Telemetry equipment they used for early flight testing at a small airport in North Carolina.

The Honda Jet turned out to be everything i had hoped, its a perfect pint sized private jet, good for both passengers and pilot. And considering it price, something a couple of pilots can pool their monies together to start a small business behind or even a ride/fly share such as this.

I can’t believe prince William is a pilot 😂

When that Vtec engine turned on I felt those rpms through my veins.

Flying on such a small and cheap business jet is a very unique experience! This aircraft actually looks like a flying car))) Thanks for another stunning video Sam 👍

Makes sense for Honda. I've loved Honda's Rebel motorcycles since I was a kid - nice looking, reliable, no fuss - same with their cars. I can see them making economical private jets, too.

Love that you went from the smallest to the biggest all in one day! Nice to see you still fly the way most of us have to, in economy.

Thank you Sam. I have been watching your videos for years, this video is so upbeat. You are a very positive person.

Designed by Japan, made in Greensboro North Carolina U.S.A. I fly this plane in my msfs 2020. Love it.

Hey Sam, Good to see you Man. You are the REASON that i fall in love with aviation. I loves your videos as much as i love Aviation. God Bless you.

Honda has done a great job. This airplane is the game changer. Great video!

Great video! Very nice production. Your enthusiasm as a customer of both Jetclub and Emirates is noticed. But you're also a pilot and that does give you a special perspective. Keep up the good work on RU-vid.

Fantastic video from the beginning to the end! Thank you Sam for a chance to dream and experience the full flight via your video!

Beautiful Honda Jet and the Italian Alps. I've always loved the A380 especially the upper deck.

I definitely enjoyed flying with you, that looked like a really great experience👍🙂

Hi Mr Chui, Aviation is something that we love, no matter where you fly, how you fly, no matter how the Airplanes look like, but sill we get to fly. Thank you for this such an amazing video... 😊

Hello Sam, I enjoy your videos and the way you show the world, perhaps for many people who cannot do something similar in life. Thank you from Costa Rica

This jet is meant for high net worth individuals to fly on their own. You don't need a co-pilot to operate the jet. It's so interesting.

Another great video, love the contrast from a small jet to the biggest

Enjoyed watching this interesting private jet experience of yours. Your shortest connecting time for your next flight. Thank You for sharing this lovely video👍🏻

sweet ride - I first saw the Honda Jet suspended over the entrance lobby of Tokorozawa Air Museum west of Tokyo in maybe 2012 - I loved it immediately !

Sam you are my FAVORITE RU-vidr!! You’re the reason why I created my RU-vid channel!! Your videos are incredible!! Thank you 😊

Glad you enjoyed flying onboard our little HondaJet Sam! Great job on the video!

What a neat compact Jet, Revolutionary - thanks for sharing Sam

This is my favourite plane in the MSFS at the moment. Such a nice little plane to hop from airport to airport. Also so much power for such a light plane.

Hello Sam, it’s a visionary journey for short trip. Honda jet has still extravagant comfort features though it’s mini size. Your video is quite educational for me who dream to work with private jet one day, Thank you❤

I use to build the flaps and flap vanes and the engine pylon for the Honda jet and I can say the engineering that went into this is amazing

As always, I loved your vlog and it's great to see all of the different ways to fly and the different airlines to fly. I'd love to see more of your experience when you fly yourself as a pilot. I would love if you offered an opportunity to have one of your subscribers to accompany you on one of your trips to get that person's perspective, too.

love the rotation right on the numbers and the butter landing

43,000 ceiling is quite high for such a tiny plane. That's super awesome.

That Honda Jet is cool. The almost all touch screen set up is also very unique. Seems to be the future of cockpits.

Cool videos Sam I enjoy everyone of them wishing you many years of smooth flying

9H-JCE just completed inspection in our company skyservice. So proud to see it in your video.

I work these airplanes all the time out of GSO, where their factory is located. In the past 10 years or so, I have worked many many test flights, many flights in and out of their facility and not one single flight has ever had any type of emergency or issue. Very solid and dependable airplane. Great value for the money. Sam, I would suggest checking out the Cirrus Visionjet in a future video. Very cool light single engine jet with the parachute and auto land function. Take care!

it's nice to fly in this little plane 😍😍

Thanks a lot for this lovely piece Sam Chui,the aircraft is very exquisite

I had the privilege to jumpsuit on two large jets back in the 80's. To sit in the cockpit of an aircraft behind the pilots is an amazing experience that most people people never will never get.

I’m scared to death every time I fly, but for some reason I don’t think I’d worry on this jet. Such a beautiful aircraft

HONDA JET must be the quietest private jet. Engines not mounted on the body is a great inovtion. And now they dominant the small airplane category. 👍

What a day you had, Sam ! Thanks for sharing all that with us :-)

what crew, very welcoming, thanks for sharing this experience !

What a bad ass little jet! Love Honda!!!

My name is also Sam and I live in the town that the Hondajet is built in, Greensboro NC. Its also where Boom supersonic want to set up their factory for the Overture (if the fallout from Rolls-Royce leaving doesn't tank the company)

Thanks Sam , Very nice and cosy !

Hey man I enjoy your videos

Beautiful airplane! Would be nice if you could try also the Embraer Phenom 100. That would give us a nice comparison. Cheers, big fan of this channel👍

U can see how Honda Hybrid Engine outperformed in F1. Ferrari, Mercedes, Mclaren are history. Thanks for sharing, Sam!

What a beautiful airplane!!!! And what a magnificent view!!!

How far can it fly?

Really... Poor man's jet 😂😂😂 Edit - Thanks Everyone 🥲

Thanks, i think we all needed a quick guide for cheap airplanes

My stomach suddenly wants to go to the bathroom. This little toilet helps me and relieves my anxiety.

Nice indeed 🤩😍👍🇧🇩

Love it!!!

I love the private jet on this video. It's so small and cute! 😍😍

Amaizing Honda jet !!!

This is quite an interesting information, But success depends on the effort and work you put in achieving greatness. Show me someone without investment or depend on one source of income and I’ll tell you how long it’s gonna take to go bankrupt. Investing creates a safe haven for the future. With the right investment choice that has at least 2% minimum risk with the advice of an expert, profits and interest are 100% guaranteed.

amazing video Sam!!

Most enjoyable and a different type of flight. Thank You.

I really enjoy watching you flying. God bless Sam

Hondajet 2600 will be a real Game Changer on Light Jet segment if suited with Gravel packege

I have recently bought this plane and I am having a blast in msfs 😅 great unique plane.

The HondaJet is so cute and cozy!!

Sam we ❤️ you awesome coverage of Honda Jet looking forward for your economy A380 journey

Sam, love your videos, but you got some facts wrong. The HondaJet has 6 to 7 seats depending on how you use the area where they put the food. That doubles as a belted seat, a/k/a it could have been your jump seat had they not brought you all those goodies. It even has a belted lav that in theory gives you an 8th seat, but I can't see too many people really using that. Second, you said it was so small. Well, it's actually bigger than other planes in its class. It has 17" more legroom than the Cessna M2. Everything is relative. If you are comparing it against jets costing 2X to 10x its cost, well then you could say it's smaller than them, but that would be not comparing apples to apples. You said it was loud. Well, there too, you were wrong. It's quieter than the competition and most airlines that I have been on. I measured the decibels with an app. You could have too. So, as you progress through your pilot journey, I think you will understand how everything is relative. Sure, I can find a bigger, faster jet - can you give me an extra $7 million more? I do not work for HondaJet, but I do fly one and have compared them to the competitors in its class.

Does it have thrust reverse? Looks like you had a good flight.

I am so happy to see you... On this flight

flying over the Alps is always wonderful

when will the vtec hit?

Sam, can the Honda jet be flown by one pilot? Or does it require 2 like the Learjets?

Thank you for showing us Honda Jet.

Great video, Sam. Thanks a lot. I enjoyed it a lot. 🙂

Could this small jet be used to fly from island to island in archipelagoes like Azores, Canaries, Hawaii, etc.? Or is it too powerful?

The next private jet you should try is the Cirrus Vision Jet…..

I recently got to go onboard a Honda Jet! It is so cool! Just wish it had gone somewhere cool like you did!

Just want to say that what these pilots are doing is the DREAM job of A LOT OF PEOPLE, including me. Flying jets in Europe.

If I owned something like this jet, I would be petrified because I’m 6’8” and the bathroom would be a nightmare!

Nice little jet from Honda ... Its too small .... I wonder how comfortable it is to fly in this jet ... People who are claustrophobic will have tough time inside the cabin 🙂

Thank you so much for sharing really great videos

What an awesome vid! Thanks for the fun trip Brother!🎉

I did watched some of the specifications of the HA-420. The plane is so cheap (not as cheap as Cirrus Vision Jet) and light, that I would probably imagine *Tom Cruise* (also an experienced pilot) flying that...

Does it come with a VTEC??? Does it come with a Type R package???

Nice!! thanks for the video nothing wrong with showing what you can do bro, life is good at least most of us will never be able to experience this so thank you for sharing with the have NOTS. LOL I love this jet

I am happy to see a prophesinol flight... Thanks for this program

Excellent video on the Honda Jet...love it! Despicable that Emirates force you to wear a face nappie which is scientifically proven it does nothing and this draconian rule needs to be thrown out by ALL airlines!

so fancy yet so small, wonder how fuel efficent it is though, anyone know?

Thanks for showing the Honda Jet.

THIS IS FANTASTICC!!!

Rest In Peace # Queen Elizabeth II, God Save The King#

Pilot is a nice guy 👍🏻

Great view of the Eiger at 6:33 and Mont Blanc in the distance (oh, and Matterhorn) at 7:01

Am in love with the cirrus vision jet +2

You got my like for finishing on the a380 economy row.

Hi Sir, I'm from Europe, I enjoyed the flight what and everybody probably knows......the first two lakes you see at 6.19 are the Briënzer lake and Thuner lake, in the middle is Interlaken. The second lake at 6.48 is Lago Maggiore, the city at the end of the lake is Locarno. At 6.53 is Lago di Lugano, Lugano will be 'cut in half' by the red part of the winglet.

Now that's revolutionary

Super cool. 😎 Love the Honda Jet.👍😊💙🛫

Such an amazing little jet and has proven how far jet technology has come. Unfortunately, even with the new Echelon model having a 2625 nm range, these are still not capable of transoceanic crossings. Yes, if you want to plan a long and complex island-hopping adventure you could probably do it, but it's just not feasible.
