Innovations. Over-the-wing engine mount design

Move the engine. Shift expectations.

Mount an engine on the fuselage and it steals valuable space. Mount it over the wing, and things really begin to open up. The HondaJet’s over-the-wing engine mount is why it can offer a more spacious cabin and greater cargo stowage capacity, performance that exceeds clean-wing jets and a quieter experience inside the cabin and from the ground. This advanced innovation will be momentous in changing the way pilot, passenger, and the aviation industry approach the skies.

Innovations: Natural-Laminar Flow Wing and Nose

Natural-Laminar Flow.
Less drag, more go.

Drag. The invisible force that conspires against forward progress. All aircraft face it. The HondaJet faces less of it, delivering class-leading cruise speed and exceptional fuel efficiency. Other manufacturers reduce drag by adding mechanisms. HondaJet employs a more aesthetic solution: design. The smooth curves and inherent flow of the nose and fuselage naturally minimize drag. And by using a single, milled wing skin, we’ve greatly reduced the number of rivets on the wing, creating a stronger and more aerodynamic surface.

Innovations: All-Composite Fuselage

Lightweight structure,
heavyweight performance.

The elegance of the HondaJet begins with the fuselage. Unlike many jets that us aluminum, the HondaJet employs a lighter, all-composite fuselage. It’s created from a patented combination of co-cured integral structure and honeycomb sandwich structurs. This new fuselage technology means increased cabin space for the passengers, better performance for the pilot, and higher fuel efficiency for the owner and operator.

Innovations: Garmin 3000

An extension of the pilot’s fingertips.

The Garmin 3000 next-generation all-glass avionics system brings pilot and machine closer together by removing an unnecessary layer: knobs and levers. The dual touch-screen controllers and 14-inch landscape 40/60 primary function displays offer unrivaled pilot control and machine performance. It’s the centerpiece in an intuitive flight deck that’s unquestionably built around the pilot.
