They sold me when they said “toilet seat belt”!!!
I had visions of a seat belt that somehow doubled as a toilet. Okay for number 1 I guess but I was struggling with how they were going to manage number 2.
In a plane that small, it’s going to be bouncing all over the sky even in relatively mild weather, and the ass-end of any aircraft is always more active than the front, so that rear lavatory most likely *needs* that seat belt.
And it won’t need a separate bidet, because the aircraft motion will provide plenty of splashing action.
I am a bit fan of Mitsubishi’s MU-2. Not an easy plane to manage. Really should have been certified for two person operation.
...
I’ve read that it’s as safe as any other plane if the pilot gets proper training.
Otherwise, it’s got a bad reputation for crashing.
Every day can be a vacation with one of those.
The original HondaJet seems to be having a problem rolling off of runways.
It has no thrust reversers.
What’s to the right of the head? A nuclear weapon?

“Honda’s New Business Jet Has Longer Rangeand a Toilet Seatbelt”
Some people need a seatbelt on their bar stool.
It may be busy aircraft, but the safety has been greatly improved with training.

Alright, now that was funny.
What the heck is that the thing in the back? It looks like a Michael Jackson Hyperbaric Chamber
It looks like a golf bag with some other luggage.
“A short range private jet with only a 1,400 nautical mile range.”
That’s extremely LONG range for a jet less than $10 million.
A $3-5 million Cessna with full passengers has a typical range of less than 700 nautical miles, a few less than 600.
BTW the wing is VERY unique. The top skin is milled from a single piece of aluminum - no rivets or bending...
I met the guy who designed the engine pylon maybe 12+ years ago. He made a bundle on that design.
That would necessitate actually SITTING on the toilet. I don’t THINK so! (I had 2 cousins who used to be flight attendants. They both said planes were disgustingly filthy. And that’s BESIDES the dirt you can see. NEVER use an airplane pillow. (Or a hospital pillow, for that matter).
