The guy that was yelling at me was walking towards me. Not sure what his plan was or why he would act that way over a guy taking a picture. When I smiled and waved he turned around and walked back to his buddies clearly saying something because they were all looking at me while he was talking. What a bunch of dicks!

Maybe Mr. Michimasa Fujino was in the HondaJet doing..."research" with a HondaMaMa; thus they didn't want any photos? :tape:

Flight aware does pictures? Or airliners dot ???
Really it is just like seeing a movie star or something and taking a photo.

I think it would have been better if the encounnter was friendly without any intimidation. :pilot:

Who knows Jason was even a prospective customer for them one day.

They are so secretive the they put the company name on it, clever.

When a company hires security people from contractors, this is what happens.
The 10$/hour security guys don't understand the overall picture nor anything about company/public relations.
They are usually cop wantabees and get carried away by pushing their weight around. The fact that there were a number of them, makes it worse. The are a "team" and become a mob giving each other mental support.
I used to work in Nuclear Power construction and saw this many times.
Too bad they did not physically assault you Jason, you could have owned that jet!

Of all the pics I've seen of the HJ over the years, I don't think I ever saw one from behind. Those pylon fairings are butt ugly. If they wanted to mount the engines to the wings, they should have made the airplane a high wing and slung the engines underneath. Oh, but then it would look like an MU2 with turbofans. Now there's an idea.......

Make them understand, or fire them.

Jason--For your actions you get the coveted BT award of the day
two 'ata boys' and a bag of oatmeal cookies.
btw--If you study the open door picture I 'think' you can see Elvis in the background which naturally explains the odd behavior.
