The first thing that comes to mind when the word "Honda" is heard is a car. It's true that Honda develops great cars, but it also develops great airplanes. The new Honda plane line produced its greatest jet yet, the HondaJet. Unlike the Cessna CJ4 and the Bombardier Learjet, its two engines are on top of the wings, displaying an irregular but effective (patented) design. The interior is luxurious, but not as luxurious as the Cessna Citation X or the Embraer Legacy. This is a pro and con; the more luxurious, the more the plane costs. The estimated cost is $3.65 million (U.S. Currency). Now imagine having an even more luxurious interior; the price could go up to twice the base price. The HondaJet has conducted several flight tests and will continue to undergo testing until everything is (FAA) approved and ready to be sold.
