Oh it’s too bad you no longer work for HondaJet. But at least you were a part of it and maybe one day a connection will be made between HondaJet, you and I. Never know.

Thanks for updating me with your job situation. Best wishes at your new job and look forward to following one another on Twitter.

I had been pulled from the HJ back in December to be a lead designer on a military aircraft, so the last I knew things were processing as planned. I knew that Honda had wanted to accelerate the schedule to the right, and with aircraft and all the qualifying it must go through, that would have been very difficult to do. I do miss working on the aircraft, but hopefully some day I can get back to it.
I’ve added you to my Twitter….so I’ll be following you there too! Have a great day!

Kris @ Fresh Focuss last blog post..Part Two – Mind Dump: What is it and how to accomplish it

What a fantastic surprise to hear from someone so closely associated with my dream jet - the HondaJet! How cool is that?

First of all, welcome to Adversity University! I shall look forward to increase correspondences with you in the coming weeks, months and years. Would love to know what’s up with the production of the jet and about your overall experiences with it.

It’s my dream to first go for a ride in it, then fly it and ultimately own it. It’ll take some work to reach the price tag but I’m determined one way or the other.

Thanks for writing and I look forward to not only hearing from you again but also checking out your newly revamped blog.

Stephen Smith sent me your way……..I was reading your gratitude this week and had to tell you this: I’m a mechanical designer and have actually worked on the aircraft brakes for the HondaJet. I designed the testing equipment as well as working on the internal disc parts of the brakes. I find the HJ to be an exceptionally graceful aircraft.

I think we’ll be “seeing” a great deal of each other in the future. I meant to stop and introduce myself before now, but I moved my blog and revamped it some, so I’ve been busy. Talk to you soon!

What a day that’ll be when this dream comes true.

Haha, you’re right - flying and mountains DON’T MIX WELL. LOL. Hadn’t thought of that when I wrote this.

“Hey, if I can be the first deaf pilot in the world to become instrument rated, why not go for the mountain?”

My friend, pilots going for mountains usually aren’t pilots for very long. :o)

Seriously, I know you’ll have that jet! And I want a ride! Blessings, my friend.

Okay, expect an email from me about ways to buy - sure, why not? I’m definitely open! (P.S. I actually have excellent credit so that’s not a problem).

How flattering it is for someone like you to be emulating me at Adversity University. I’m delighted to see you start a gratitude post - now let’s see if we can get 50 million other bloggers doing the same thing - imagine the power it’d have on the world. A world full of genuinely grateful people. Oh, my.

I know - I drooled over the Eclipse Jet too - until Honda came out with a better looking, better performing (in my opinion) plane. I’ve been looking at it ever since. I have a picture of it on the wall in my office, a screensaver and another picture on my refrigerator. I have no idea how long this dream will take to manifest but it’s all “percolating” in my brain, I like to say.

It’ll be great to have you come along for a ride in the jet. I’ll keep you in mind but you might have to wait a while on this one! LOL.

Thanks for becoming yet another participant in this community - I’m so thankful!

You got it! It was a pleasure to tell everyone about your article - I hope my mere mention of it sent a nice flow of traffic to it!

Yes, the HondaJet is really sleek - I saw it during a demo at an air show a few years ago. I felt none of the usual vibrations that normally accompany a jet on takeoff - I later learned that it’s one of the “quietest” jets coming out on the market. Groovy!

You are renting? Hey, this is the best time to buy. And if you should have any credit concerns, shoot me an email, because there are ways. Always. (No, I don’t teach scam. I’ll just tell you the outline and the book about it if you are serious.)

Have a great weekend!
