That is I think the first time I've seen the engines mounted in that fashion.

That is one cool jet, and I would love to fly in that thing. I wonder what the price tag will be.

In their own words, "It looks radically cool!" Pretty cool jet. |

Looks like it'll be around $4.5 million... |

Yeah, Honda has been showing that plane for quite a number of years during its development. It is good to know that, finally, approval is very close for them. All the aviation media says it will be a game changer - jet performance in a 'large civil aviation' size (I see they are calling it "light business jet") and fairly cost competitive with a top-line Cessna.

Must be a big part of what Honda's famous Power Of Dreams Commercial has been about. I could not make a connection with the airplane, now it all makes since. Whatever Honda builds has always been top quality, sure this will be no different. Would jump aboard in a heartbeat.
