Honda Aircraft received the type certificate for the HA-420 HondaJet from Brazilian National Civil Aviation Agency ANAC last week, the aircraft manufacturer announced on Tuesday at LABACE 2017, where it is displaying a HondaJet with a yellow and white paint scheme. Brazilian certification of the jet with over-the-wing-mounted GE Honda HF120 engines follows similar approvals from the U.S. FAA, EASA, Transport Canada and Mexico’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation.
