N311HJ

This entry covers airframe N311HJ, a factory-built Honda HA-420 HondaJet constructed in 2018 with serial number 42000118. The aircraft is manufactured by Honda Aircraft Company and is registered in the US. The airframe is recorded as owned by MCI RENTALS LC, an LLC based in North Bay Village, FL, US, and appears in listings with an indicated market value of $3,500,000. Registry and valuation records describe the airframe as an executive-configured, fixed-wing multi-engine jet used in light charter or corporate operations.

The specific cabin on N311HJ is an executive layout featuring a forward side-facing seat plus a four-place club; current public listings advertise the arrangement as accommodating 5 passengers in its present configuration. Avionics are fitted with a Garmin G3000 suite including GFC-715 autopilot, dual GIA-63W flight processors, GTX-33D ES transponder, and GTS-855 TCAS-I, supporting single-pilot dispatch in the HondaJet class and modern situational awareness. Typical operations for this airframe profile include short- to mid-range corporate missions, owner/charter itineraries within its 1,206 nm range and domestic US hops from its South Florida base. Maintenance considerations reflect the two HF120 turbofan installations and Garmin integrated systems, consistent with factory-recommended inspections and type-specific support channels.

The Honda HA-420 HondaJet occupies the light business jet niche as a twin-engine, high-speed commuter with overwing-mounted engines and a composite fuselage contributing to its cruise and efficiency characteristics. Competing models in the segment include light-cabin jets that emphasize short-field performance and owner-operator economics; the HondaJet’s advertised 422 kt cruise and 43,000 ft ceiling define its performance envelope. Buyer and charter demand typically centers on owner-flown or small-corporate operators valuing modern avionics and cabin efficiency; resale and maintenance considerations hinge on HF120 engine support, avionics lifecycle (Garmin G3000), and documented ownership such as MCI RENTALS LC.
