Independent Representation
Retain A HondaJet Representative Before You Make An Offer
The seller already has a broker. You need someone in your corner who understands the records, the airplane, the inspection, the agreement, and what ownership looks like after delivery.
Your representative is an A&P/IA who manages a HondaJet fleet day to day and reads every logbook page personally—not a broker working from a spec sheet. FlyHJ represents the buyer through candidate review, HondaJet-specific diligence, pre-buy coordination, findings, closing, and the first year of ownership support, and the same relationship can continue when it is time to sell. Flat fee. No commission or referral fees from anyone on the other side of the table. Carson Lee handles every engagement personally, with limited concurrent buyer work.

A General Broker Can Find An Airplane. A HondaJet Buyer Needs More Than That.
The expensive mistakes are rarely visible in a listing. They are buried in records, program status, configuration, inspection language, repair history, and the difference between a shop estimate and an actual seller obligation.
What HondaJet Representation Looks Like
The engagement is designed around the decisions that determine whether a HondaJet is the right airplane—and whether the deal is the right deal.
The Engagement
One flat fee from your first candidate review through closing, with the first year of ownership support included. No commission. No referral fees. Nothing from the seller, the seller’s broker, or the inspection facility.
What FlyHJ does
- Candidate review and comparison by serial number
- Records diligence: airframe and engine logs, inspection program and life limits, ADs, service bulletins, damage and repair history
- CAMP-vs-logbook audit and ALIM due-list reconciliation, so the due list matches reality
- Discrepancy and recurring-squawk history, tied to CMC data, so repeat problems surface before closing
- Line-by-line review of shop invoices against the approved quote and program coverage
- HondaJet-specific pre-buy coordination and findings review
- Findings mapped to the purchase agreement: seller obligations, Honda classification, buyer cost
- Technical review of LOI and purchase-agreement terms alongside your counsel
- Introductions to and coordination of tax, insurance, and financing specialists
- Technical acceptance and delivery coordination
- First year of HondaJet Support after closing
What FlyHJ coordinates, but does not perform
- Price and term negotiation — you and your counsel
- Title, escrow, and registration — a title and escrow company
- Legal and tax advice — your aviation attorney and CPA
- The inspection itself — an independent inspection facility
These stay with the professionals licensed and insured to do them. FlyHJ makes sure they are working from an accurate technical picture of the airplane.

Findings, Agreement, Decision
Know What The Airplane Needs—and Who Is Responsible
A priced line item can be optional equipment while an airworthiness or delivery condition item remains undiagnosed and listed at zero dollars. Treating the largest number on a quote as the deal can hide the issue that actually matters.
FlyHJ reviews findings in the context of the purchase agreement, pushes for specific classification and documentation, and separates seller obligations from cosmetics, ordinary wear, and elective improvements.
- Records over first impressions: serial-specific history, programs, compliance, and continuity.
- HondaJet-specific inspection scope: structure, systems, engines, avionics, and equipment.
- Clearer acceptance decisions: itemized findings, documented responsibility, and informed negotiation.
The Relationship Continues After Closing
The Person Who Reviewed The Airplane Stays For The Life Of Your Ownership
This is not a one-off records review. The first year of HondaJet Support is included, so the aircraft moves from acceptance into an organized ownership rhythm around compliance, maintenance, documentation, vendors, invoices, and decisions—and the same relationship continues for as long as you own the airplane, through to the eventual sale.
HondaJet Representative Questions
- How is FlyHJ different from the seller’s broker?
- The seller’s broker represents the aircraft owner and the sale. FlyHJ represents your technical and operational interests, helping you evaluate the airplane, coordinate diligence, understand the agreement, and make an informed decision before you commit.
- How is FlyHJ paid?
- A flat $30,000 engagement fee, paid by you. FlyHJ accepts no commission, referral fees, or other compensation from sellers, brokers, or inspection facilities, so the advice is not tied to whether—or which—airplane you buy.
- What if the airplane fails the pre-buy or the deal falls apart?
- The engagement covers every candidate you’re considering until you close on a HondaJet, however many that takes. Walking away from the wrong airplane is a good outcome, not a reason to start the fee over. Third-party costs such as inspection-facility invoices and travel are billed separately for each candidate.
- Do you negotiate the purchase price?
- No. You and your counsel negotiate price and terms. FlyHJ gives you the technical basis for that negotiation: which findings are seller obligations, which need Honda classification, what is elective, and what the records and program status mean for value.
- Who handles the legal, title, escrow, and tax work?
- Your aviation attorney, a title and escrow company, and your CPA. FlyHJ reviews the technical terms of the LOI and purchase agreement alongside your counsel, coordinates technical acceptance and delivery, and introduces tax, insurance, and financing specialists when you need them.
- Is FlyHJ the inspection facility or the PPI shop?
- No. FlyHJ provides independent HondaJet representation and technical oversight. The inspection facility, borescope provider, test pilots, and other vendors remain separate professionals whose work FlyHJ helps coordinate and interpret. Their fees and repair invoices are separate from the FlyHJ engagement.
- What happens after I buy the aircraft?
- The first year of HondaJet Support is included in the engagement. That continuity carries the aircraft from closing into records organization, compliance and inspection planning, maintenance coordination, invoice review, and owner visibility. If support continues after year one, it does so at $2,500 per month for ongoing HondaJet Support. That monthly amount is remote stewardship, not high-touch airport visits.
- Can FlyHJ help me decide which HondaJet to buy?
- Yes. The work starts before you commit to a specific airplane. FlyHJ can help compare the candidates you’ve shortlisted, review serial-specific records, identify likely program or maintenance exposure, and evaluate whether the configuration and upgrade path fit your mission and ownership goals.
