    HONDA Aircraft, which delivered its first light business jet in late 2015, has announced its single largest order to date - 16 aircraft for European air taxi company Wijet.

    The deal is estimated to be worth up to US$80 million (S$105.6 million), a milestone for the relative newcomer to the business jet market.
