The Honda Aircraft Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Honda Motor Company that has developed the prototype HondaJet and is slated to manufacture and market the production version of the aircraft. The company was formed as a separate entity in August 2006 under the leadership of president and CEO Michimasa Fujino.[citation needed]
On October 10, 2011, Honda announced on the campus of Guilford Technical Community College that the company would construct an 80,000 square foot facility near the world headquarters of Honda Aircraft Company in Greensboro, North Carolina and add over 400 jobs to the city.[citation needed]
The corporate headquarters are located at the Piedmont Triad International Airport[citation needed] in Greensboro, North Carolina, where the prototype HondaJet was also developed and flight tested. In February, 2007, the Honda Aircraft Company announced plans to build a 214,000-square-foot (19,900 m2) office and manufacturing facility in Greensboro to support HondaJet production for deliveries in 2010.[citation needed] In April, 2009, the company announced a delayed schedule with test flights in early 2010 and deliveries beginning in late 2011.[1] In August 2010, Honda announced further delays: test flights would begin in November, but actually happened on December 21, 2010 and first deliveries to customers will be in 2012.[2]
