Inside The $12 Million HondaJet Echelon

[@803mastiff9]

The Honda Jet is a elegantly engineered work of art. The PC-24 is another amazing aircraft

[@AviationBase]

You're right

[@paulotitus]

I love the interior design, the frame and it color

[@AviationBase]

We agree!

[@daveseymour4661]

Love being informed of Hondas newest innovations!

i love watching all this videos with only 20$ on my pocket LoL

Thanks

[@AviationBase]

Thanks to you!

[@lengxiong3061]

Just can't wait to see the real one!! The 2600... bigger always better ❤👌👌

[@AviationBase]

The 2600 was the name of the project, the real name will be Echelon. However, can't wait to see it flying too!

[@TheLastRockNRollerAlive]

It looks cool. I can imagine going really fast while sitting in it.

[@AviationBase]

Must be an awesome experience!

[@anbaha5793]

I like the cirrus vision jet +2 i feel that its a small expensive toy i loved how easily the plane is operated. With one button the plane lands it self .and the perchute its safe if some thing happens

[@loukalter5998]

I' prefer the Vision Jet as well too. Also I think it's safer aircraft.

[@simozaz4736]

I vision with 2 engine will be the best

[@joshJ.]

I predict Honda will make even a bigger plane to compete with gulfstream, Bombardier and Dassault !

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Thank you for sharing this information about this aircraft.

[@AviationBase]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching!

[@PWingert1966]

Yeah, this is item number 2 on my lottery bucket list. Right behind the French Provencal mansion with ten bedrooms.

[@keljaz6616]

😊

[@JuvoII]

First plane, then invent place to fly to. French countryside okay.

[@MedianaDhea]

still curious with Echelon's range with maximum passengers onboard.

[@anthonypropst1818]

Really, what does does that mean, limiting it to 5 people to keep it running efficiently? That is strange wording for aircraft speak.

[@keljaz6616]

Range: 2,625nm (4,862km) {Standard aircraft, 1 pilot & 4 passengers, NBAA (100nm) IFR fuel reserves}

[@MedianaDhea]

@@anthonypropst1818 every single aircraft has NBAA Range. Full capacity always leads to shorter range.

[@MedianaDhea]

@@keljaz6616 finally. Thanks for the info.

[@Monopoly55]

I will own this jet in 5 years

very nice...low operating cost.... seaplane....

[@chegekinya2454]

It's a very very fine jet

I am buying one😝😝

[@edwarddejong8025]

Let's hear it for Mr. Williams, the genius guy who worked on the Chrysler Turbine Car, then went on to create some fantastic small turbine engines, which happen to power the cruise missile, which can go 4000 miles on one tank of gas. That's pretty amazing.

[@Veldtian1]

That's some fantastic killing power.

[@edwarddejong8025]

@@Veldtian1some of the cleverest minds have been engaged in improving weaponry. cyrus mccormick pioneered interchangeable parts which were demonstrated to abraham lincoln during the bloody civil war. so much tech was initially developed for the military

[@SauloMogi]

Will be what, around 2 mil per year to run it ?

[@AviationBase]

It will probably be cheaper than that, my estimate is about half a million a year in fixed costs and $2,000-$3,000 per hour in variable costs

[@srimathifashionjewellery4191]

Super bro ❤

[@NeoCambodia]

Is it me, or those the Honda jet looks like a smaller, modernized Fokker VFW 614

[@ols884]

SO basically can realistically carry just 5 folks but built for 11?

[@Asidebar]

Yeah I find that odd

[@parimal7528]

Single pilot rating but much bigger size than PC24 or Phenom300 is going to big advantage to Honda 2600.

[@srimathifashionjewellery4191]

Really nice details review of u

[@miltonchadwick]

Necessary to restrict passengers to 5 people for efficient running on a jet of 12m dollars?

[@acevtol]

YES Please

[@jakobfolmar6604]

Seats 11 but only take 5 passengers? Did I hear that right?

[@Daniel_Simms]

That's what i heard, lol

[@williamhullum6415]

I think you get max efficiency with 5 passengers. Not getting 2600 miles with 11 passengers.

[@6by6by6]

But can it preform as the PC-24 off airport..

[@Rizzler3k]

Be more specific

[@shintenhou229]

For the ommuter purpose suitable.

[@johnregan326]

Brilliant stuff must buy one 🛩👍.

It really is!

Wonder what the crosswind limit will be.

Best cabin pressurization among light aircraft 🛩 is the Syber jet, 0ft at 41,000ft and only 1,800 ft at 49,000ft ._____.

[@Sandhoeflyerhome]

You keep saying LEV-er ... remember if you have vowels separated by one consonant the first vowel takes the alternate bigger sound "E" so the word becomes LEEver.

[@marcpinckney5616]

The Hondajet HA-420 is a unique let jet with regard to speed, cabin layout and wing mounted fanjet engines. Compared to its principle competition the Cessna M2 and the Embraer Phenom 100 the Hondajet has a high Vref speed, 112 knots, where as the M2 and Phenom 100 have Vref speeds of 105 and 100 knots respectively. There have been several Runway over run incidents in the Honda Jet, as there is no reverse thrust arresting with any of these airplanes. I would like to see the HA2600 incorporate leader edge slats into its wing architecture. Leading edge slats reduce Vref speeds by roughly 15% allowing the airplane to have much better approach and takeoff performance. So it may add 10% to the acquisition cost, $12.5 million to $13.75 million. Few individuals will buy these aircraft and the corporate aircraft community would likely find the HA2600 more appealing if you can fly into more airports with its class leading range. Private aviation is about going into places that are not commonly supported by airlines. Just something to ponder when looking at the long-term success of a new aircraft program. The Honda HF120 engine has only costumer, the Hondajet HA-420. It's thrust class is very limited with regard to airframe option. At 100 pounds heavier than the Williams FJ 33-5 and about 5% more powerful, it is not suitable for the Cirrus Jet. I hope that Honda Jets leadership isn't making another misstep by under baking the HA2600.

Nice jet, but don't tell me about carbon emissions, we're not doing that BS.

[@AviationBase]

Yeah, that's right, but some people still think that planes are destroying the planet

[@Andrico77]

Why not try to continually improve….do you prefer the plumes of smoke from jets of the 60’s … or the reduced efficiencies .,..?

[@amanryan6803]

I heard they figured out a way to make it run on rainbows

[@hugolafhugolaf]

@@Andrico77Whatever works, but I don’t care about emissions as either a goal or a sales criteria.

[@mtadc1545]

@@Andrico77I’m all for improvement, but not at the cost of making things unaffordable for the middle class and lower…which is what this obsession with carbon neutrality is doing with every industry. It also leads to general cost of living going up. Just take a look at Canada.

[@guybeingaguy]

I was in 3 different versions of this last fall. They were just more bumpy when landing. Taking off it didn’t shake at all. Noise levels were completely unacceptable👎 The lavatory was too small for the price. The cockpit layout was not pleasing or symmetrical. Carpet was ok upholstery was hideous.

[@MrCucamonga1]

The Celera 500L will make aircraft like this obsolete. The current, rumored price of the Celera's first release is said to be around $5mil. Making it much less expensive than this Honda Jet. The cruise speeds on both aircraft are about the same, with the Celera just edging out the Honda Jet with 460kts. However, on the range, Celera just flat out dominates the Honda Jet, coming in at around 4,500 nautical miles compared to Honda's 2,625 nautical miles. Also, the Celera's operating costs will be way lower than the Honda's, being that the Celera is a single prop aircraft compared to a dual jet engine aircraft. Lastly, being that the Celera is just a single prop aircraft, the bar of entry will be a lot easier to achieve for a Celera pilot than acquiring a jet engine pilot license.

[@iskandera1783]

But it's not a honda

[@MrCucamonga1]

​@@iskandera1783 Well....that's true. Lol

[@jesusvazquez326]

Honda is reliable, and Celera who knows

[@spooksy1982]

Single prop vs dual jet. Sounds like two different aeroplanes for differing missions. Personally if I was rich and carting my family or friends around I’d really appreciate that redundancy and reliability of jet engines.

[@MrCucamonga1]

​@@jesusvazquez326That's fair.

🤦 If this was designed as a ACURA JET 🤷 or even engineered by HPD Honda performance development 💁 and they had a Type-R variant I will be all in 🤝 I'm sorry but the lanes can't even fit someone with a wheelchair through it 💁 with no irritation! And also this would be way more impressive than this if it had 💁 one plus one / 1+1 seating with appropriate headroom, elbow, and knee room 🤦 would have made all the difference for 11-19 million dollars
