This looks like a bunch of footage cobbled together from other online videos, yet presented as original. It's not. In addition, some of the interior pictures are of another aircraft, not the HondJet. Deceptive.
Some interior photos are from a different jet NOT a honda jet. Also you state it needs two pilots to fly that is FALSE!!!! Get your facts this video is deceptive.
For many of you batteries aircraft lover, don’t bother mention comparison with this lovely designed and engineered in America. 50% less fuels consumption certifications from the US government officials. I will own one either flying or just parking next to the house. Over 20 years flying no death? What’s impressive records? Great job Honda Jet.
@5:07, did you say the jet requires two pilots? Garmin G3000 avionics reduces pilot workload so that Phenom 100, 300, can fly by one pilot. Same for Pilates PC12, and 24 whose Honeywell avionics allows one pilot. The Daher TBM 940 also uses Garmin G3000; it requires only one pilot.
HondaJet is 1 pilot certified, we didn't include that in the video. It doesn't require two pilots, but there is still the place for the second pilot which can be the place for one more passenger.
- they sold literally hundreds of first model (112 is not really hundreds) - the new model is equipped Garmin 3000 (the old is too, just got minor software update) - the jet requires the crew of 2 pilots (it has 2 seats but it is single pilot certified) ;) - there are optional 5 th seat, (and the sixth on the toilet, and one instead of one of the pilots, so you can carry 7 pax + yourself) Etc
I wonder why Honda Jets are not used for flight training or by any flying schools....even Embraer Phenom and Learjets were used by some flight schools...
@@DerekDavis213 yes and no. Citation 550s 500’s, and others like that, but larger ones can go faster. Think of this as your on the freeway and doing 70 and there’s the car or vehicle doing 55-60 and backing up traffic, The Honda jet is doing 60
@@87toyhighlux oh ok, I see what you mean. But Honda Jet can fly at 485 mph, that's a decent speed. Compared to small prop planes, that's like a Ferrari!
Interesting that it's essentially an american product. Maybe they couldn't find the expertise in Japan. Surprising. It seems like a good product with efficient engines. Strange though that it weighs 3.3 ton empty. The engines are only 210kg each and you'd think that a carbon fiber body and wings could weigh much less than 3 ton.
Truth is that certification took far too long. This plane first flew back in the 90s before Honda bought it from the American engineers who designed and built it in North Carolina. Yes….. it is American technology. But the name sure is Japanese： 本田 (Honda)
May I ask a novice engineer question? Engine on wing. In failure of fire or explosion or damage from collision it's taking the wing with it? Also, windows look too big and too square. Also, perforated blades. Won't that exacerbate metal fatigue? I would prefer less comfort knowing that I'm not riding on a razors edge of design error. OK, I'm done.
