Honda Aircraft announced Tuesday that the HondaJet Elite II received type certification from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency. The Elite II is being shown this week at EBACE for the first time.

The Elite II on the EBACE static display (AD_21) was flown from the company's manufacturing headquarters in Greensboro, North Carolina, which was made easier thanks to the aircraft's 1,547-nm range (NBAA IFR with four passengers). The flights to and from EBACE are using sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) book-and-claim credits “to promote the deployment of SAF and support the industry's commitment to carbon neutrality,” according to Honda Aircraft.
