I'll let someone else earn the red badge of courage flying this
aircraft. After twenty years, if there haven't been too many
accidents, maybe it can be considered safe.

I notice in the photo gallery, the only mention of safety shows a
photo of an emergency exit. There are zillions of pictures of the
cabin, but only one of the flight deck. Clearly, the audience is the
rich businessman and the pilots are merely servants.

The HondaJet cockpit configuration provides a high degree of
integration for enhanced situational awareness, functionality, ease of
operation, redundancy, and flight safety.

I don't know about the last part, but time will tell.

When did Honda become a significant name in aviation?

Truer words have never been written.

Pretty much the day they said they were going to build an airplane. Thought
it could be argued it was when they said they were going to build an
airplane engine.

Numbnuts, you let someone else earn the red badge of current flying ANY
aircraft.

Some aircraft are safer than others.

And you know this how?

Not exactly the voice of experience.

While there will always be discussions on the relative merits and
safety of one design over another, these will be discussions of informed
opinion, for which you are singulary unqualified. In other words, until
you've tried an airplane, you lack credibility when you offer your
speculation.

By looking at design features and failure modes, and accidents. For
example, the original de Havilland Comet was unsafe.
