It's for 21st century kamikaze attacks. :troll:

This plane better have VTEC.

Klutch 01-05-2011 09:32 PM
But the question is.....Does it have VTEC?

JSALES 01-05-2011 09:33 PM
like all the youtube comments "when does v-tec kick in" or "are they gonna make a type-R model" hahaha

johny 01-05-2011 09:56 PM

MindBomber 01-05-2011 10:23 PM

that front nose looks pretty deadly, imagine if the plane doesn't stop in time and spears the marshaller

that thing's a pitot tube, it's there for now to measure airspeed properly and stuff, when it's in production it wont be in the front anymore, but i think it looks kinda ugly without it....and a bit ugly with it actually....the thing looks kinda ugly overall lol.

Honda should put that type of passion and effort back into making good cars. CRZ was a total flop.

So will this be the civic of the private jet world?

if so

god help us with oversized wings and aftermarket HIDs on the wingtips...
FUUUUUUUUUUU blind us from the sky!!

of course... there will always been a few nicely done up ones

!e.lo_ 01-06-2011 12:34 AM
Damn, you guys beat me to the VTEC jokes.

so what's with car companies putting R&D in other fields?

seakrait 01-06-2011 12:38 AM
congrats to honda for this achievement but man, that's one fugly plane. the engine placement is all weird. looks like an upside-down airliner wing.

The_AK 01-06-2011 01:12 AM
expect an influx of ebay fart cans for this thing

FerrariEnzo 01-06-2011 01:14 AM
will it transform into a civic?

I was thinking more along the lines of a Massive Asimo aka Massimo :fuckyea:

Honda has never been a "car company" to begin with. It's always Honda Motors Corp.

i.e. Anything with an engine, they'll try to do it.

GabAlmighty 01-06-2011 09:34 AM
Definitely not a fan of the engine placement.

And, who needs to retract landing gear? Fuel efficiency is for suckers!

I was wondering the same thing?

Maybe a failure?
Something to do with safety being one of the early flights?

Regardless, I love the sound when it takes off.
Secksy!
