Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N903TH is a HondaJet Elite S (HA-420) completed in 2021 with manufacturer serial 42000224. It is manufactured by HONDA AIRCRAFT CO LLC and is registered in the United States; the current registered owner is LIGHT MOON LLC, an LLC based in Newton, AL, US. The aircraft carries a typical market valuation of $5,700,000 and is presented in executive configuration as delivered by the factory. Registered to LIGHT MOON LLC in the U.S. following manufacture in 2021, the airframe reflects a recent-build example of the HA-420 family with standard Honda customization.
The cabin of N903TH follows the typical executive layout: single pilot plus 5–6 passengers in standard configuration with an alternative 1+7 seating option supported by the interior arrangement. Onboard amenities include an aft private lavatory, a small galley and 66 cu ft of combined baggage space, suiting short to medium-haul corporate missions. Avionics are a Garmin G3000 (Honda-customized) fit, providing integrated flightdeck automation and situational awareness for single-pilot or two-pilot operations. With a city-pair range near 1,437 nm and high cruise speed, the aircraft is typically employed on regional executive transport, owner-flown travel, or light charter missions operating from the owner/operator base in Newton, AL. Standard maintenance considerations follow Honda Aircraft and GE Honda powerplant schedules for the HF120 engines.
The HondaJet Elite S (HA-420) occupies the light, high-speed, composite, over-the-wing-engine niche, offering market performance such as 422 kts cruise and a 43,000 ft service ceiling. Competing models include other light jets seeking owner-operator appeal; the HA-420’s Garmin G3000 and HF120 turbofans position it for buyers prioritizing efficiency, short-field capability and modern avionics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2021 airframe center on adherence to Honda Aircraft factory service bulletins and HF120 engine programs, with a contemporaneous valuation near $5,700,000 informing lifecycle cost and remarketing prospects.
