JCAB Greenlights HondaJet ELITE The Japan Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) has green-lighted the newest iteration of the HondaJet, the 'ELITE'. Since Honda Aircraft Company opened up the order book for the ELITE in Japan through its dealer there HondaJet Japan, there have been around 10 orders for the aircraft so far. Naturally many of those orders will start being shipped before the year ends.
Honda Aircraft president and CEO Michimasa Fujino said, "Through our sales of the HondaJet Elite, we will strive to create a society where business jets are more easily accessible to everyone in Japan." The ELITE is relatively new as the upgraded variant to the original HondaJet. Deliveries started in August after being revealed earlier in the year at the EBACE show.
