HONDA AIRCRAFT COMPANY Stand no. 2
In 1986, a young Honda engineer named Michimasa Fujino crystallized that vision when Honda initiated research and development into an advanced, air-bound Honda. After three decades of both passion and hard work, the HondaJet creator has completed his vision as the president and CEO of Honda Aircraft Company.
HondaJet was truly born from the power of dreams — the power that drove our innovations in aircraft design from thought to drawing board to flight. HondaJet began as an intellectual contemplation and developed into a series of questions: How could a light jet become more efficient, more elegant, more advanced?
Experimentation, exploration, and research ensued — and the HondaJet vision was realized through design innovations that create an integrated, technologically advanced aircraft. The realization of this dream is due to equal parts romance and pragmatism. Honda Aircraft Company materialized from Honda founder Soichiro Honda’s goal of enhancing human mobility and Fujino’s vision for the world’s most advanced light jet.
As a company built on following dreams, we’re seeking people like you who think big, and think differently. With a diverse, inclusive team of unique individuals, there’s nothing we can’t build.
