Honda Aircraft has launched its first certified preowned program (CPO), the company said Thursday, following Bombardier’s lead in forging an alternative pathway to owning a business jet. Bombardier initiated its CPO program in 2021 and exhibited a fully refurbished 2012 Challenger 605 last month at EBACE. Honda's CPO program covers customers in the Americas, Europe, and Asia through the company’s authorized sales network.

Calling it the sole CPO choice in its very-light-jet class, Honda practices what it calls a discerning selection process for choosing aircraft, a rigorous inspection, and expert maintenance processes before receiving the CPO designation. The program also offers “end-to-end services,” from entry-into-service to post-sales support.
