RADAR ESTIMATE

What N18ZH is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the HondaJet on its own yet, so this borrows the Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve, scales it to N18ZH's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N18ZH

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This entry covers a specific Honda Aircraft Company-built airframe, registered as N18ZH, a Honda HA-420 (HondaJet) with manufacturer serial number 42000054. The airframe’s build year is not published in the supplied data; it is currently owned by Above the Clouds LLC, an LLC based in Helena, MT, US, and the registration country is recorded as US. The registration indicates the aircraft is operated from a U.S. home base, and there are no additional documented ownership changes or incidents provided in the available record.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft is configured in an executive club seating layout with a 1+5/6 typical arrangement and includes a rear lavatory and external baggage capacity of approximately 66 cubic feet, supporting light corporate transport and owner-flown missions. Avionics are fitted with the Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, suited for single-pilot operations in the light jet class and offering advanced situational awareness and automation. Typical mission profiles for this airframe would include short- to medium-range business trips within the continental United States, leveraging its cruise speed and range for point-to-point travel. As owned by Above the Clouds LLC (based in Helena, MT), operations are likely centered on private corporate use or on-demand executive transport originating from that region. Maintenance and operational planning would mirror HondaJet OEM recommendations for the HA-420 and the GE Honda HF120 turbofan engines.

Model & Market Context

The Honda HA-420 (HondaJet) occupies the light business jet niche, offering a combination of high cruise speed, efficient range, and a modern composite fuselage/over-the-wing-engine-mount design. Competitors in this category typically include other VLJs and light-cabin jets that prioritize owner-operator capability and lower operating costs. With a cruise of 422 kts and a ceiling of 43,000 ft, the platform is attractive to private owners and small charter operators; resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine cycles for the GE Honda HF120s and the aircraft’s avionics and interior condition, factors that will influence marketability relative to other light business jets.
