The HondaJet received type certification from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority of Mexico, the Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil.

The jet will make its debut at the 2016 Aero Expo, Mexico’s most prominent business aviation event. The trade show is being held at the Toluca International Airport from March 16 to 18 where a production HondaJet will be on static display.

“Receiving aircraft validation in Mexico is an important milestone for Honda Aircraft Company, paving the way for the start of HondaJet deliveries in Mexico,” said Honda Aircraft Company President and CEO Michimasa Fujino. “We are excited to respond to the interests of customers in Mexico, and we will begin with the first delivery in a few weeks.”

To provide sales, service and support for customers in Mexico, Honda Aircraft has partnered with Aerolineas Ejecutivas.

“It is a tremendous opportunity and a privilege to sell a world-class product like HondaJet that our customers will embrace,” said Aerolineas Ejecutivas President Arturo Ortega Olive. “There are several business opportunities for HondaJet in the Mexico business jet market. We are excited to showcase this advanced light jet for the first time at Aero Expo.”

The HondaJet received U.S. Federal Aviation Administration type certification on December 8, 2015 and the company began deliveries on December 23, 2015. The HondaJet is manufactured at Honda Aircraft Company’s world headquarters in Greensboro, NC.
