HondaJet in Mid-Ohio

[BlobIslandGame]

I just pre ordered mine

[brandon35335]

nice, a small business cheap sexy airplane, not bad. but i only have a private pilot license

[BinKhalfoon]

4.5 milion dolars its alot of money :-(

[jdmlover2011]

after a few it will be burning oil like mad

[JamesWiesel]

where in north carolna do they build this plane?

[toby16custom]

Whats the gallon per hour burn on this bad boy?

[PirateSygnal]

I meant to type... VLJ! LOL!

[PirateSygnal]

I am very excited follow this new VLG entry (there aren't many beyond experimental). My personal favorite is the Mustang, but I am open to new ideas. The engine configuration is definately unusual. Not that it is bad, just different. This thing is hugely fast and FL43. Going to be fun to watch how it does.

[MegaDeathwarrant]

dam i want to work for honda

[marlene1004]

@MegaDeathwarrant they are hiring lol

[Drucru16]

Does it have VTEC?

[freebird20002012]

japanese engineering = best. ask any american car manufacturer today that copies japanese car designs from last year.

[FL065]

take a bird into one of those engine struts and that badboy is comin off

[tinolino58]

They better built Civics

[idontcare80]

Honda made a huge mistake with this jet. They are spreading the company too thin and their cars are suffering as a result.

[Snookynibbles]

@idontcare80, baseless, totally unfounded opinion.

[JustineBieberxoxo]

@idontcare80 Yes, because cars is all they used to do right?

[idontcare80]

@JustineBieberxoxo No, but cars are what they have been most successful with.

[marlene1004]

@idontcare80 No they are growing, they are spreading their engineering, they dream big and do it. This can go for Privately owned, or Companies, You have No Idea the great effect this has had on my life, my community everything. It's a great idea that they did this, they already have 200+ orders for these awesome jets.

Wonder whos gonna be the first ricer to flip over the emblem "A"

[Microglia1]

embraer is not even in competition. Why would you fly a third world jet when you can have the most advanced Nippo-American small craft on the planet?

[sincerelyspeaking]

@Microglia1 Embraer Phenom 100 is more fuel efficient, has an unbeatable dispatch reliability, a higher level of comfort (interior design by BMW Designworks) and much more space for luggage. Embraer has been built by a company with decades of experience in building very reliable jets, and its engineers employed the same philosophy of reliability while projecting and building the Phenom 100. Embraer has a widespread network of service for Phenom owners. And Phenom 100 is cheaper than Hondajet.

[TheTitan606]

dam rico flys thses things all the time

[boycoollike]

I WANT IT But it Has to go tthrough a bunch of test One of Them is Hard to Answer Will It Blend?

[Mexicanboy387]

i want this so badly!!

[maskedgunman]

SEXY fucking interior. LOVE it. 4.5 million is CHEAP.

Hahaha re: "fastest Honda." It better be!

[runrunforest1]

no toilet ? forget it

[lionelmtb88]

@runrunforest1 Yes, it has a Toilet.

[whatever04811]

i wonder if Honda's hydrogen technology can be implemented in jets???

[64MojoMan]

i want 1

[YOSKIE806]

id rather go with Embraer jets

[zobeck11]

yes! let me have three please!!!! that will be cash...

[TheCanto500]

SouljaBoy should have waitedd for 2012 and bought this for $4.5m...other than a $50m G5

[DavidVillalba17]

im gonna buy one next week

[AvivAbargelofficial]

My father owns a business\private jet, that's pretty cool:)

[GunArts0231]

every time i look at the monitors it looks like a video game....i should start practicing on one of those flight simulators.

[TheMely2209]

mamamamama, im getting it. :)

[Burnsengine]

Would love to get behind the stick!!!

That just LOOKS fun to fly.

[hondarox715]

wonder if it has a vtec ;)

[SuperEnigmation]

@hondarox715 wouldn't a VTEC on a HondaJet be like having afterburners? Lol

[bobotcha]

hondajet... so sexy

[juki0h]

now honda has gone airborne, pretty soon, space!

[mrtokyopig]

Dear santa... IWANT THAT!

[Lolwut67]

@blackphonetic1

And all your pornography is gone.

[macbookpro57]

why can't private jets be affordable

[veritasvg]

@macbookpro57

It has to do with materials science in jet engines and then with regulation. Anything that's regulated to this extent will be expensive.

[rock3tcat]

Does it come with V-Tec?

[leicam6]

Great car.

[kazzemg]

@leicam6 it's a plane not a car lol

[trainfreak7745]

@kazzemg they should stick to lawnmowers

[DrLsw]

@kazzemg planes can use the same engine as a car :)

[BoneZombie]

Ya North Carolina FTW!

[AndyRoddick969]

Its a Honda! Duh, they focus on Quality, Performance, and Efficiency. its no LAMBOJET. so dont expect too much from it.

[makinamati]

THIS IS TOO SMALLL, LOW LUXURY... BUT OK TO JUST COMMUTE

[xenx619]

@makinamati what were you expecting? a G6? a 757? Lol its a Honda, cheap, economical, and reliable. Getting from point A to point B through the air was the main goal.

[makinamati]

@xenx619 BUT OK TO JUST COMMUTE

[Polishsoldier1]

0:21 wait what? 0:21 HOLY S**T!! That's expensive!

[TigerGrumman]

The Emivest SJ30-2 may be in bankruptcy, but they were able to build the fastest, highest flying VLJ on the market and they gave it a wow factor 2,500nm range. No VLJ comes close. You have to move up to mid-size BJs before you get that range normalized.

Why didn't Honda give the Honda Jet at least a 2,000nm capacity. That would have put the aircraft on my "serious contender" list, had they done that. Hopefully, a Honda Jet variant will at least double its current range. It has no legs.

[glodieda]

if the engines weren't sitting on the wings, I'd be loving this baby...

[roejames12]

@glodieda Just thinking here, but a lot of jets/airplanes also have engines on the wings (think: engine under wing design). Of course on the other end, a lot of them don't as well, but ya.

[lebcom]

i both it....its not good!

[Dominoes282]

Idk how this can compete with the thejet by cirrus. It's a little bit slower but 1/5 the price

[polian78]

@Dominoes282 There's just something about pushing the throttle forward and the nose is pushed down (Cirrus Vision or PiperJet Altaire) with single engine overhull centerline...

[utubeworms]

So what how is hanging the engines on wing pods better than hanging them from the fuselage?

[Afterburner289]

@utubeworms Apparently Honda did this with lower drag than fuselage mounted engines. Also, by mounting them on the wing the fuselage doesn't have to taper so much at the back to accommodate the engines which gives a lot of extra room for cargo and whatnot.

[utubeworms]

@Afterburner289 After thinking about it a little more, I suppose it would also cut down on cabin noise?

[cgyfp]

On October 20, 2010, Emivest Aerospace Corporation ("Emivest") filed a petition for bankruptcy in the United States

[jingumor]

Is Asimo driving?

[757LeftSeat]

The ONLY problem I have with this aircraft is its lack of range. The SJ30-2 has had several financial setbacks over the span of its development and certification process, but it does have an amazing range of 2,500 nm. That blows the doors off of any VLJ on the market right now. I'm surprised that Honda did not at least set the program for the to reach a 2,000 NBAA IFR target range. In fact, being in the "market" I'm very disappointed because I like everything else about the HondaJet.

[MrTDF11]

how can it come in 2012 if the world will end in 2012 :D

[fighterjetfreak09]

@MrTDF11 this is your getaway vehicle lol :P, dont have to worry... just buy one of these and fly around for a bit!

[curetheingorant]

The Hondajet jet clearly show the superiority of Honda engineering over "German engineering" which is now largely myth and marketing spin.

[757LeftSeat]

@curetheingorant "The Hondajet jet clearly show the superiority of Honda engineering over "German engineering" which is now largely myth and marketing spin."

--------------------

Sorry, but it was German Engineering that put turbine powered aircraft on the map here in the U.S. during World War II, by producing the first "production" Fighter powered by a jet engine called the ME-262. Had Germany been able to produce more ME-262's near the end, the U.S. might be now called the Fatherland.

[rickslick730]

I like Honda, they are on a whole norther level. all of the car competitor's say there better then Honda, and all Honda haft to say is. do you make jet plans?lol just when you think Honda is down in out.they take it up a Noach, literally.

[nashriquez]

What!!!

Top Speed 220 knots??

OMG!!!!

Ya serious!!!! that's slow!

[aegillott]

@nashriquez 420 knots. I'd say that's decently quick...

[madzane94]

@aegillott 420 knots is fast for something so small. xD

[nashriquez]

@aegillott OK.. I'm sorry! dont say that! :/

[anesen123]

420 knot you faggot

[lvecsey]

looking forward to the NASA highway in the sky (HITS) software update for this one.

[Willbrse]

Make a Indy500 in the sky, put the Indy drivers to pilot the jet and let's see who win :P

But if they crash, we'll have a problem D:

[zombiesurfer1]

@Willbrse Or they could install ejection seats
