To make it easy for people to get in and out of the jet, the body had to be very close to the ground. If you have a low-mounted wing, then the engine could not be under the wing. If you had a high-mounted wing, the wing box takes away valuable interior space, and thus that design cannot be used. If you have a low-mounted wing, and rear tail-mounted engines, the vibrations are transmitted into the body of the cabin, making it noisy. If you keep the engines near the tail, but you suspend them via pods that extend from the wing, then the fuel in the wings tends to absorb the engine vibrations, making the airplane very quiet.

[@forward_ever_ever2595]

Understood...simple & nice.

[@jussayinmipeece1069]

additionally the reason the German jet failed was not the placement of the engines but the placement of the tailplanes. The jest had a tendency to steam hot exhaust over the tail rendering them useless.

The Honda Jet is one of two most brilliant and innovative game changing aircraft to come in a very long time. The other being the Lilium Jet in the evtol sector. Honda Jet introduced an all new class to aviation, one that simply did not exist prior. A private business jet of its size that in many ways could not be if not for its brilliant layout. with its engines mounted above the winds and detached from the fuselage. Its quality aeronautics performance and price tag makes available a private business class jet to both the tapped and untapped market. Those who want to own but dont are not Bill gates rich. Businesses that want private air travel but also seek a more cost sensitive solution. The Honda Jet is open is most sectors of the aviation industry. so its extremely popular and sought after. and for those that need a bit more but also dont want to break the bank. Honda jet will undoubtedly expand its range with the Honda Jet 2600. which will put a huge dent in the market of larger private jets. Its coast to coast range, which includes intercontinental travel would see to many private operations opting for the sheer reduction in cost with such an aircraft, let alone its ability to be flown by a single pilot. greatly reducing operational cost and vastly increasing profits. With the success of the original Honda Jet and the game changer its been, one cant even begin to imagine what the 2600 will do to the industry as a whole.

Your statement belies your ignorance of aerospace. Firstly, over wing nacelles are not a honda invention, secondly there are several features not found on the H20 that are standard of the EA55. Lastly, the "EVTOL" is nothing more than a drone with the capacity to carry passengers and none are turbines. the term you are looking for is LJ which the H20 is, GA which is the sector the aircraft is part of, and regions of operation for which the thing is less than impressive for. A CJ gives you a larger cabin with better field performance, an Emb505 gives you better cruise speeds. The thing is almost on the numbers of VLJs and not comparative with proper LJs. Besides, have fun working on the thing.

I think the Cirrus SF-50 Vision is by far best in class sales leader but you would have to include the Gulfstream 200 Series and I think Embraer makes a "personal business jet" as well. HondaJet is *considered* the best because demand for the product continues to outstrip the supply they are able to produce and given high fuel and operating costs for all the other brands has A: gotten a hefty price increase for 2021 (only one reason for that) but just as importantly B: earning a strong reputation for service and support given the massive size of $hmc Honda Motor Corporation. Plus "made in the USA" doesn't hurt either. Not a good presentation of what is arguably best in class aviation as a product I would agree with that. Definitely competition as with this entire Sector against the current "bailout tycoon Airlines" which are obviously struggling with domestic flight issues at the moment let alone all the craziness internationally speaking because of the USA military withdrawal from Afghanistan.

I'm not sure what's so clever about firing a team while they were coming up with a best selling product. There may have been a time when impatience and ignorance were not considered admirable traits in America. But I guess you'd have to go back a while...

[@abelt.thomas1521]

I swear to God Ill be buying one in 2028

[@ralphwatt8752]

Would be great to see a lengthed version with longer range

[@ubermenschen3636]

Phenom 100 is better. For a bit more $$, The Piaggio is roomier in every way, burns less fuel at the same speed, longer range, higher ceiling, and longer hours between engine overhaul.

[@oldsnwbrdr]

I hope Piaggio makes it. The Avanti is my favorite plane.

[@ubermenschen3636]

@@oldsnwbrdr ::: I think Piaggio P180 is still being produced. Maybe one or two per year by pre-order.

All i want to know are self take off landing has been build in planes like self driving cars or not with provision that pilots can take over manually anytime they can, because self driving is safest to do in planes private or commercial

Shame someone who has to refuel one was not in on the design , not to mention doing a lav service.

[@poppyneese1811]

Hope it’s better built, more comfortable and more reliable than my wife’s 2014 Honda CRV, worst car purchase we ever made.

[@AnimeSunglasses]

I get the feeling that you could sum up the Honda Jet as "It does everything that made the Lear Jet great, does it cheaper, more quietly, and in more modern comfort!"

[@NikValcic]

AND it has a head!

[@stevencharles4333]

My father and uncle were both 35+ years with de Havilland Aircraft, they survived the Boeing debacle; both are now retired, and they continue to rave about the HondaJet.

[@raywhitehead730]

And what about it do they rave??, not a criticism, what is so good about it.?

I just adore HondaJet. I need to own one.

[@sbfhawk4343]

Honda just introduced the larger 10 passenger size jet and that one will be the one I would like to purchase for future. This one though is still very sleek fast and compact like my CRX so I can see owning one of these is desirable.

The Winglets decrease wing wind turbulence and , the nose of the Honda Jet was designed after the nose of the Bottomnose Dolphin. The nose of the Dolphin is Hydrodynamically efficient in the water, the Jet's nose has a similar effect, good Aerodynamics.

[@aickoyvesschumann3400]

1000lbs/h to transport only 7 people is fuel efficient? While there are airplanes that can compete with cars' efficiencies, this is definitely not one of them. The time savings must really be worth burning that much fuel.

[@portnuefflyer]

It is... for the right person. Also, he said at "only" 360 knots cruise, the fuel burn drops to 500 pounds an hour.

[@Cultofpersonality09129]

Go Cry.

[@DiscoFang]

"The time savings must really be worth burning that much fuel." That's about $320 to cover (approx) 420miles in 60mins, or $160 to do it in 70mins. So LA to Vegas would be around 40mins and $90 in fuel (plus whatever extra for takeoff, taxiing, waiting etc). The same trip in a mini-van would be around 4 hrs and $60. So yeah, $30 to save 7 people over 3 hrs. That's $10 per hour.

[@DiscoFang]

* Current jet fuel price is around $700 per metric ton or $320 for 1000lbs. LA-Vegas by air is 228 miles; by road is 270 miles.

Let's hope they can make bigger planes and even enter the commercial side of the industry

[@blue7lvn245]

The fact they make their own engines

[@wheelsofafrica]

With the high up engines, this jet could be easily and cheaply converted to land on water.

Thiz jet iz incredible… and yes i am a aircraft engineer…

[@dropdog395]

I guess any jet can be a business jet, technically. It would look pretty silly next to a Gulfstream.

The VFW-Fokker 614 jet wasn't entirely German.,.. It was a collaboration between Dutch (Fokker) and German (VFW) companies
