The medevac configuration was installed on a HondaJet Elite owned by Wing Spirit, an air ambulance and charter company based in Hawaii.

“We are pleased to announce the installation of the first medevac configuration on the HondaJet. We are confident the aircraft’s size, efficiency, speed and cabin comfort are well-suited to these special missions in the Hawaiian Islands,” said Honda Aircraft Company president and CEO Michimasa Fujino.

Meanwhile, due to increased demand for the HondaJet, Honda Aircraft has begun construction on a second FlightSafety International HondaJet Elite simulator. The company revealed that the second simulator will be located in Farnborough, Hampshire in the UK to support HondaJet customers throughout Europe. It is expected to begin operation in April 2020. Commenting on the addition of a second flight simulator and a new service location, Fujino said: “As our fleet continues to increase in size, it is necessary for the HondaJet service, support and training network to expand. We are proud of the relationships we have with flyADVANCED, FlightSafety International and our support network around the globe. They have been instrumental in providing HondaJet customers with an unrivaled ownership experience.”
