Flying the $5 Million Honda Jet - The Cheapest Private Jet?
2,188,698
Published 2022-09-10
My flight is arranged by charter broker LunaJets; one of Europe’s leading charter brokers. The flight is operated by JetClub, which allows you to own a fraction of the plane. The owner can even fly in the Honda Jet to build jet hours! A cool concept for pilot training. We climbed to 31,000 ft and crossed the spectacular Alps in great weather. It feels very cozy with just me as the sole passenger.
After landing in Milan Malpensa, I rushed off to the main terminal to catch an Emirates A380 to Dubai. This time, I flew in Economy Class. From a private jet to the back of the A380 Super Jumbo. I experienced two unique flying experiences in one day!

Great plane, can't wait for the the Type R version.

The Honda jet is a beautiful and revolutionary aeroplane. By attaching the engines to the wings the weight of the engines contributes to bending relief for the wings during flight. I have been an aeronautical engineer for 37 years and I have always been impressed by the Honda Jet. And I drive a Honda Civic-which has been the most reliable and durable car I have had. It has never leaked oil, doesn't burn oil. And it has travelled 257,000km. Honda have always been very talented at making excellent machines that are very nice to use, and are also very reliable and perform very well too. I have also been hearing many nice reports about the Honda Jet from engineers and pilots.

When I read Honda jet I thought of safety and quality right away. I like it, it's the same size of a Honda Odyssey.. although the Odyssey has more buttons on the dashboard than this jet. Thank you Sam and good luck with your piloting career.

In the late 1990's Honda went into development on this jet. I had the privilege of providing part of the Telemetry equipment they used for early flight testing at a small airport in North Carolina.

When that Vtec engine turned on I felt those rpms through my veins.

This jet is meant for high net worth individuals to fly on their own. You don't need a co-pilot to operate the jet. It's so interesting.

The Honda Jet turned out to be everything i had hoped, its a perfect pint sized private jet, good for both passengers and pilot. And considering it price, something a couple of pilots can pool their monies together to start a small business behind or even a ride/fly share such as this.

Thank you Sam. I have been watching your videos for years, this video is so upbeat. You are a very positive person.

I can’t believe prince William is a pilot 😂

Flying on such a small and cheap business jet is a very unique experience! This aircraft actually looks like a flying car))) Thanks for another stunning video Sam 👍

Great video! Very nice production. Your enthusiasm as a customer of both Jetclub and Emirates is noticed. But you're also a pilot and that does give you a special perspective. Keep up the good work on YouTube.

Hey Sam, Good to see you Man. You are the REASON that i fall in love with aviation. I loves your videos as much as i love Aviation. God Bless you.

Makes sense for Honda. I've loved Honda's Rebel motorcycles since I was a kid - nice looking, reliable, no fuss - same with their cars. I can see them making economical private jets, too.
-
Love that you went from the smallest to the biggest all in one day! Nice to see you still fly the way most of us have to, in economy.
-
