Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N168HJ, is a 2019 build of the Honda HA-420 HondaJet with serial number 42000168, manufactured by Honda Aircraft Company. The airplane is recorded on the U.S. registry and is owned by the Gulf Shores, Alabama–based corporation GRILLED OYSTERS INC. Registered to a corporate operator in Gulf Shores, AL, the type of ownership suggests use in business or executive transport rather than scheduled commercial service. The airframe carries an estimated market valuation of $4,500,000, reflecting its relatively recent build year and factory-standard equipment.
The cabin of this HondaJet is configured in the typical executive layout with 1 crew + 5–6 pax in a four‑place club arrangement and optional belted side seats, supporting a comfortable corporate mission profile for short to mid‑range flights. A private aft lavatory and approximately 66 cu ft of combined baggage space (factory published) support executive comfort and light luggage loads. The airframe is fitted with a Honda-customized Garmin G3000 avionics suite, enabling advanced flight management and situational awareness for single‑pilot or two‑pilot operations. Based on owner location and aircraft capabilities, typical operations would include regional business hops, point‑to‑point executive travel from Gulf Shores, and on‑demand charter missions within the HA‑420’s 1,223 nm range. Maintenance considerations follow standard Honda Aircraft Company recommendations for the HF120 turbine engines and Garmin integrated systems.
The HA‑420 HondaJet family occupies the very light/entry light business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and a 43,000 ft service ceiling competitive with peer aircraft. With two GE Honda HF120 turbofans producing 2,050 lbf each, the type competes with other light jets for owner‑operators and charter operators seeking efficient short‑to‑medium range capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its 2019 manufacture date, factory avionics fit, and corporate ownership, factors that commonly influence demand and valuation in the pre‑owned light business jet market.
