Honda chose the event for the world premiere of its first private aircraft, the highly anticipated HondaJet. “This is our demographic,” said American Honda Vice President John Mendel, standing at the nose of the new HondaJet.

Bell Helicopters brought its new Bell 429, a $6-million, six-passenger luxury copter that typically includes a personalized interior that may add as much as $800,00 to the bottom line. Seated inside the Bell 429 are Owen Coulman, left, and Bobby Frey.
