“We are extremely pleased with the early response to the HondaJet by customers in South America,” said Honda Aircraft Company president and CEO Michimasa Fujino. “In addition to receiving multiple orders, many more individuals at LABACE have expressed interest in the HondaJet, saying they are impressed with its class-leading performance, comfort, fuel efficiency and overall fit and finish.”
Honda Aircraft Company recently expanded sales of the world’s most advanced light jet to South America and appointed Líder Aviação as the exclusive dealer to provide sales, service and support for the HondaJet in Brazil. Based in Belo Horizonte, Líder operates more than 23 fixed base operations (FBOs) throughout Brazil.
A production HondaJet is on static display at LABACE. Following the show, Honda Aircraft Company and Líder will conduct a demonstration tour to showcase the aircraft’s performance capabilities to Brazilian customers.
“There is strong market potential in Brazil, and Honda Aircraft Company is committed to creating a higher standard for the light jet market in South America,” said Fujino.
