Building on Honda’s legacy of innovation in business aviation, Honda Aircraft Company is developing the HA-480 “Echelon,” a next-generation light jet. I served as Program Lead for the aircraft’s Cabin Systems, responsible for integrating the Interior Lighting System, Cabin Management System, Passenger Address System, Cabin Entertainment Audio System, and Electronic Window Shade System. My role encompassed directing supplier performance, driving certification readiness under Part 23 regulations, and ensuring seamless integration across interiors, avionics, and electrical teams.
