The production-specification HondaJet has completed its first flight. Yes, the Japanese company not only does cars, bikes and robots, it has been working on its own aeroplane. Honda’s famed engineering ethos still applies, which is why the twin-turbofan HondaJet will be the fastest, quietest and most fuel-efficient in the light business-aircraft sector. The cabin is like a combination of “Gulfstream V” and “Stream MPV” in terms of space, comfort and practicality, while the cockpit features an all-glass avionics system and dual touchscreen controllers.
