Max talks with Ranferi Denova about what pilots need to know about flying small planes to Mexico, though the advice applies broadly to international flights from the U.S., including to Canada and the Caribbean. Ranferi assures pilots that flying to Mexico is safe and rewarding, provided they plan ahead and follow proper procedures. He details aircraft and pilot documentation requirements, such as an airworthiness certificate, insurance, and an FCC radio license. He also explains essential paperwork, like the Mexican flight permit (A IU) and the newly required LOPA (Layout of Passenger Accommodations). Flight planning considerations include IFR versus VFR flights, the necessity of submitting an eAPIS manifest before departure, and understanding Mexican air traffic control procedures. Ranferi provides guidance on clearing customs both upon arrival and when returning to the U.S., emphasizing the importance of preparation and patience. Additionally, he discusses common pitfalls, offers practical tips for a smooth experience, and introduces tools like FlashPass to simplify the process. Whether heading to Mexico, Canada, or the Caribbean, pilots will gain valuable knowledge to navigate international flying confidently.

The first fatal HondaJet accident just occurred. Greg Feith and John Goglia go over the known facts of the air crash in Mesa, Arizona on November 5. The jet ran off the runway and struck a car on a nearby road, killing the driver and four of the five people on board the jet. They draw similarities with a 2014 takeoff accident involving a Gulfstream jet near Boston. Poor preflight preparation may be the biggest contributor to this deadly event. Greg and John share the simple tests and steps that can be the difference between a successful and a fatal flight. Greg and John also discuss Greg's recent recognition from the National Aeronautic Association. Greg was named a 2023 Distinguished Statesmen of Aviation.Greg and John finished the episode with a discussion of the show's newest advertiser, Piston Power, and how their various options for managing routine and non-routine repairs may benefit an aircraft owner.They also welcome a new sponsor - PistonPower™.

Max talks first about the fatal crash of N57HP, a HondaJet, which crashed earlier this week during takeoff from Falcon Field in Mesa, AZ. The aircraft reached 133 knots on the runway, well above the rotation speed of 115 knots, before rejecting its takeoff. Max also talked with Rob Mark about a near-miss incident at Chicago O'Hare involving Envoy Flight 3936, an Embraer 170. The incident took place on September 25th, when the aircraft was cleared to land on Runway 10 Center but mistakenly landed on Runway 10 Left instead. This misalignment was the result of multiple small errors—a classic "Swiss cheese" moment where various lapses align to create a potentially dangerous situation If you're getting value from this show, please support the show via PayPal, Venmo, Zelle or Patreon.

Will Honda's soon to be released jet-sharing service bring private jet flight to a larger market? Is it going to bring down the price of private jet flight considerably, given Honda makes and owns their own jets? Is more private jet flight a boon for travel in rural Japan or just another emissions nightmare? Aaron and Parker discuss Japan dropping to 104th in gender disparity, Japan's job availability down in January for the 1st time in over 2 years, and a government recount of listed Japanese islands finding more than 2x the previous statistic.
In this week's airplane news we have a new HondaJet Elite II which will cost around $7 million, the Advanced Air Mobility Coordination and Leadership Act has been signed into law this week (SB516), and the FAA is fielding comments on the construction of airline seats for safety, not comfortability, sadly; lastly, Elon Musk's StarLink Aviation has been launched at 350MB/s download and 20ms latency.

Honda is another automaker that is looking beyond its current offerings in order to stay relevant in the years to come. The company has introduced its 2030 Vision which is designed to serve people worldwide with the "Joy of expanding their life's potential". From the ASIMO robot to the Hondajet and Formula 1 racing experience - the company is bringing it all together to expand into areas like an electric vertical take-off and landing eVTOL aircraft, an avatar robot with a goal to expand the range of human ability, and a new challenge in outer space.
NBAA-BACE, HondaJet 2600 Concept Light Jet, Cirrus Vision Jet, Diamond all-electric trainer, KC-46 tanker, airline ticket refunds, smuggling, Australia News Desk.
In 10 to 20 years, Honda wants its business to offer more than automobiles, motorcycles and power equipment. A part of its “2030 Vision,” the company from Tokyo is looking to the sky and to robots and sees these advancements being offered by the 2030s and 40s. The first is air taxis. This would build on HondaJet, which was founded in 2006 and features business jets. Bloomberg reports that Honda hopes to commence flight tests on its air taxis in 2023. It will use a lithium battery and a gas-turbine generator which would assist in increasing its range. If all goes according to plan, Honda sees this certified by 2030. And if Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) reaches a fully autonomous stage by 2040, Honda estimates an annual market of $269 billion.

This week, we interview the owner of several popular light jets to learn to the pros and cons of jet ownership. He’ll share a ton of advice and compare features and benefits of some of today’s most popular private jets plus a lot more. If you’re thinking about flying or buying a jet, you won’t want to miss this! Check out the full show notes hereSubscribe to our YouTube ChannelAsk Us your QuestionsSupport Us on PatreonI’m very excited for today’s guest, Mark Hangen. Mark is an extremely interesting guy and experience jet pilot and owner. I think you’ll really enjoy our interview as well because we cover a lot of common questions and topics from folks looking to step up into their first jet. We will cover a lot of ground during our interview such as how to buy a light jet, including mission and market considerations, how to train and build time in a light jet to combat today’s tight insurance climate, the pros and cons of dry-leasing a jet rather than owning one outright, as well as managing and maintaining your new jet in the most cost-effective and efficient manner. We’ll also be comparing the features, performance, and mission profiles of the most popular light jets on the market – the Citation Mustang, 550, 560, and 525 Citation Jet series and why they remain competitive and desirable among owners and pilots despite increased competition from the Embraer Phenom, HondaJet, and Pilatus PC-24. Today, we’re speaking with Mark Hangen, the founder of an innovative commercial ice machine company based in Michigan called Easy Ice. Mark knows ice almost as much as he knows airplanes. Mark has flown and owned a wide variety of aircraft throughout his career, including piston singles, light twins, and large turboprops like the Turbine Commander. Mark’s not only the CEO of Easy Ice, but also its Chief Pilot. Today, Easy Ice operates multiple light jets including the Citation 500-series, Citation Mustang, and the Citation CJ2.
Sunday's are GREAT for Dream Building#HondaJet
When I heard the news about HondaJet for first time in 2015, I was not sure what to think. Honda is one of two top Japanese car manufacturers in US but it has been losing its sparks in the market. My initial thought was if Honda is going to let the Jet business lead its 72 year old company. I found its success was possible due to nothing fancy but rather ordinary in Japanese culture. Step by step approach with a long-term perspective and vision. Going over footsteps of the others and learning from their failure also played a big role for President and CEO Mr. Fujino Michimasa. In his interview with Nikkei Business, Mr. Fujino stayed calm and gave us hints how the success cannot be rushed.

Email us! Full Transcript: Struck Podcast EP17 - Did Boeing Apply Undue Pressure re: 737 MAX? We discuss Honeywell's UAS tech and Vertical Aerospace's Seraph aircraft. Dan: This episode is brought to you by Weather Guard Lightning Tech. At Weather Guard, we support design engineers and make lightning protection easy. You're listening to the Struck podcast. I'm Dan Blewett Allen Hall: I'm Allen hall. Dan: And here on Struck, we talk about everything. Aviation, aerospace engineering, and lightning protection. Alright. Welcome back to another episode of the struck podcast, Allen. Well, it's going on this week. Well, Allen Hall: uh, Boeing's under some pressure again, to get max deliveries go on. It sounds like the factories up and running, which is a good sign, but there's a lot of FAA in department of transportation pressure for undue pressure on the delegated, uh, engineers that help sign off on the design, which is just another bad thing for Boeing to be going through. So, you know, better week in terms of flights, did you notice that the number of people flying this week is up another couple of ticks? It's not 20% up, but we're in the low thirties look like in terms of number of flights versus last year, which is a good sign and alongside numbers still, still goes up and that's a positive sign for the world economy and the U S economy and aviation overall. And, uh, It also looks like the business community. The number of flights in the, on the business side is still pretty stable. It's down, it's down. I thought I heard 20 to 30% versus last year. That means we're still in the 70 percentile range in terms of business flight and the lease market. That's not bad in the lease market's doing really well. Uh, the partial ownership market, uh, I listened to a podcast this past week with Honda jet deal with HondaJet, a lease program from his that wasn't a Honda. Own program, but as a Honda, they're using Honda jets to shuttle people around. And it sounds like they were doing pretty well there. They had five airplanes in their fleet and we're going to take delivery of another one here shortly. And they're going to add a total of 10 new ones. So to get to 15 odd digits in their fleet. And you have to have a pretty, uh, rosy economic forecast to bring hot to basically triple your size of your company. Joe's airplane fleet. So I thought that was a, a good positive sign too. So some green shoots, right? Dan: Yeah, a lot going on. Uh, so in today's in today's episode, we're going to cover, uh, what Allen just mentioned. So belling and, uh, this undue pressure idea as far as some of their delegates, which is a really interesting, and, um, I know Alan has some pretty deep insight on this. We're going to, in our engineering segment, we're going to talk about Honeywell doing a bunch of stuff on the UAS and the urban air mobility side. So they've got a couple of different pieces of new tech we're gonna, we're going to chat about. And then our third segment, we're gonna cover, um, some vertical takeoff and landing, uh, news in the electric sector. So, uh, we'll talk a little bit about vertical aerospace and their Saraf, uh, aircraft, which, uh, Honeywell is a, is a partner with that new development. So interesting design. I know you've got some thoughts, so excited to get to that later, but let's, let's start first with, with Boeing.
Jet It is a business aviation operator launched in 2018 that operates a fleet of HondaJet Elite aircraft and has introduced a unique business model to the private travel market. The company uses days rather than hours to sell shares of aircraft to customers, and this allows owners to only pay for the direct operating costs of the aircraft. That equates to $1,600 an hour. Jet It currently operates a fleet of five HondaJet Elites, with plans to add more throughout the rest of the year. On this episode of the Global Connected Aircraft Podcast, we’re joined by Glenn Gonzales, CEO and co-founder of Jet It. Have suggestions or topics we should focus on in the next episode?

That's the news today. So planes are just buses. So Airbus's are literal buses. Right there literally buses or their cargo. Airplanes are seeing a lot of conversions happening making passenger planes cargo planes. Which is the thing to do. FedEx is really busy. There's a think of New York Times article talking about how busy FedEx is and We're on pretty much every FedEx aircraft with our straight product and when you have seen them flying a lot because everybody's things off Amazon and checks is one way to do. That was until recently you know FedEx an Amazon had a parting of the ways there. But there's still a lot of things being mailed around Because you know you stuck at home. So there's a lot of cargo business going on in that at least keeping some portion of the airplanes flying which is beneficial. Yeah and in my apartment building here in DC. They've and God bless all the people that are doing a lot of these tasks like concierge desk and they go get your packages from them and they. They're twenty-four seven which is nice compared to some buildings but yeah they said like hey please come down and get your packages quick when they come because we have way more packages than even like the table Christmas season. Whoa yeah. I mean so when you're you know I'm a pretty good-sized building and when you consider yeah just the people are trying to order literally everything and not leave their house which is good in the pandemic but it's not good for the people who have to handle all these packages and right now. We have to come down. Sign for like you know. That's fine for me. I interact with one person one time. But they're interacting with every every every day. Yeah so all of us have just been obviously trying to abide by whatever rules. They said and give them their distance and take their packaging and be about our way. But you know there's a lot of people doing those jobs you know whether it's your postal worker. You're package delivery man or woman. You're in all these things grocery workers like there's a lot of essential jobs that are just you know. I appreciate everyone. Continue to do those.
When the long-anticipated HondaJet finally arrived, there was less fanfare than expected. But owner/operators are finding the maintenance costs are as advertised: low. And the plane is fun to fly. Join me for insights with the very enthusiastic Dave Moore.

Bienvenue dans le 23ème épisode de ce podcast !Cette semaine, nous allons parler d'un sujet orienté vers l'exploration de nouvelles frontières aéronautiques et plus particulièrement du projet SolarStratos.Notre invité de la semaine est Raphaël Domjan. Raphaël est l'initiateur et un des pilotes du projet SolarStratos. Nous discuterons avec lui de ce projet exceptionnel dont l'objectif est d'atteindre la stratosphère avec un avion motorisé par un moteur électrique alimenté par des panneaux solaires. Nous irons en détail sur les problématiques spécifiques des vols dans la stratosphère au niveau de la pressurisation et de l'aérodynamique.ActualitésL'actualité de la semaine est la première livraison de la nouvelle version du HondaJet dans sa version Elite. Le HondaJet est un "VLJ" pour "Very light jet" en anglais ou "Jet très léger" en Français.Image : Le HondaJet, un VLJ très facilement reconnaissable !Au début des années 2000, de nombreux projets de VLJ ont été annoncés par divers fabricants nouveaux et existants. Peu de projets ont néanmoins vu le jour. Parmi ces projets, on retrouve l'Embraer Phenom 100, le Cessna Citation Mustang et le HondaJet.Image : Une cabine relativement petiteLa particularité immédiatement reconnaissable du HondaJet est sa configuration avec les moteurs présents au-dessus des ailes. Cette configuration permet de réduire le bruit en cabine et d'optimiser l'aérodynamisme de l'aile à haute vitesse.Image : Une avionique moderne basée sur le Garmin G3000La version Elite a permis d'améliorer quelques aspects de ce VLJ. Le poids a été réduit d'une centaine kilos permettant ainsi d'augmenter la charge utile. Les réservoirs de carburant ont également été optimisés afin d’accroître sa portée. Les nacelles moteur ont aussi été améliorées afin de réduire encore plus le bruit en cabine grâce à la micro-perforation des entrées d'air.Rubrique thématiqueCette semaine, nous discutons avec Raphaël Domjan du projet SolarStratos. L'objectif de ce projet est d'atteindre la stratosphère avec un avion électrique alimenté par des panneaux solaires.Image : SolarStratos dans son hangarNous discutons d'abord des "éco-explorations" précédentes de Raphaël et la genèse de l'idée de SolarStratos. Nous irons ensuite en détail sur les particularités de cet avion et plus particulièrement de ses ailes recouvertes de panneaux solaires intégrés à la structure.Image : Vue arrière de SolarStratosNous parlerons ensuite des particularités des vols dans la stratosphère au niveau de la pressurisation et de l'aérodynamique. Raphaël nous expliquera le choix de la combinaison spatiale au lieu de la cabine pressurisée comme dans le cas du Perlan 2. Il nous expliquera également les mesures permettant d'éviter une situation critique au niveau du flutter.Image : Habitacle et cockpit avantNous conclurons sur l'avancement des vols et de la contribution de ce projet pour les énergies renouvelables de manière plus globale.Vidéo de la semaineLa vidéo de la semaine est une retrospective de l’année 2017 proposée par l’équipe de Solar Stratos. On y voit quelques images du premier vol par le pilote d’essai et directeur de vols Damian Hischier ainsi que de nombreuses images montrant en détail le processus de fabrication de l’avion. On peut ainsi y voir l’intérieur de la machine ainsi que l’aspect de surface de ces ailes si particulières. La combinaison spatiale ainsi que les premiers tests effectués par Raphaël y sont également présentées.Lien vers la vidéoConclusionAinsi se conclut donc le 23ème épisode.

Innisfree Hotels founder Julian MacQueen discusses his record-setting trip around the world in his HondaJet.
We're in the studio having just returned from the first drive of the 2018 Honda Odyssey in Prince Edward Island. Cars parked out front are the 2018 BMW M550i, Audi S3 quattro, Hyundai IONIQ, and the Kia Niro. Our news editor Peter is also in studio with us, as we touch on the differences between the Audi S3 and TTS, the Odyssey versus its other minivan comparos, and we nerd out about tires after a track day with our Mazda MX-5 RF Sport. Stop in!
Back in August, We discussed the Go / No Go decision, with a focus on a perfectly good airplane, which exhibited some anomalies with its annunciator lights. The manufacturer and A&P said it was working as intended, but Marc knew differently. Today, Marc brings up the same Go / No Go decision, but with respect to the pilots capabilities and the environment around him or her. Does the decision come down to legalities, safety, intelligence, personal minimums, or maybe a more objective criteria concerning having "outs". The discussion is not as cut and dried as one might think. Take a listen and let us know what you think. You can write Marc at me02@aol.com Marc also spent some time going over current events. Congrats to Honda for its certification of the HondaJet. Other items that may interest you include a manned drone like aircraft, or the fact that the government is looking for someone that can help them take safe control of someone else's drone and earn a cool $100K for their efforts. And one warning, don't bring your hoverboard on your next flight!!! Thanks for listening. Blue Skies and Tailwinds!
