This entry covers airframe N820JL, a factory-built Honda HA-420 (HondaJet Elite) manufactured by Honda Aircraft Company, LLC in 2019, serial number 42000140. The airframe is owned by VOLATO 140 LLC (corporation based in Chamblee, GA, US), is US-registered, and appears in public listings as operated from or based in the owner’s Georgia area of record. The airframe’s recorded market value is $2,933,544, and public registry notes and charter/base listings document its executive-configured appearance and avionics fit; no other notable registry actions are published.

This specific HondaJet is listed and commonly operated in a 4–5 passenger executive configuration in public listings, with a charter or base listing showing a 4-passenger layout; the airframe retains an overall certification for seating up to 8. Avionics aboard this airframe include a Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, with a GFC 700 autopilot reported on this installation, supporting typical single-pilot light business jet operations. Typical missions for the platform and this airframe would include short- to mid-range point-to-point executive transport within its 1,437 nm range and cruise capability of 422 kts; operations are consistent with a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet based in the Southeastern United States. Maintenance considerations follow HondaJet program standards for the GE Honda HF120 turbofan pair and the Honda Aircraft Company support network.

The Honda HA-420 (HondaJet Elite) occupies the light business jet niche emphasizing high cruise speed and efficient short-field performance, with a service ceiling of 43,000 ft and transcontinental regional range characteristics. Competing types typically include other entry-level light business jets; buyer and charter demand often focuses on cabin ergonomics and low operating times, factors reflected in public charter listings for this airframe. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe are influenced by its 2019 build year, the GE Honda HF120 engine type, factory avionics fitment, and the recorded market value of $2,933,544.
