Design, Experimental Verification, Fabrication and Flight Testing of the HondaJet
Speaker: Michimasa Fujino
Michimasa Fujino is a vice president with Honda R&D Americas, Inc., and Project Leader for the HondaJet program based in Greensboro , North Carolina . In this capacity, he leads all engineering tasks from design through experimental verification, fabrication and flight testing of the HondaJet.
Mr. Fujino joined Honda R&D Co., Ltd. in Japan in 1984, after graduating from Tokyo University with a degree in aeronautical engineering. He spent the first two years of his career in automobile research division to develop new electrical control steering system .
He has nearly 20 years' experience in the design and development of aircraft and has participated in several aircraft projects and had major responsibilities in the design and development of two experimental aircraft: the MH01, a single-engine, turboprop, composite airplane, and the MH02, an all-composite, business jet. He has also performed research in the fields of configuration design, advanced aerodynamics (including natural laminar flow), and transonic aeroelasticity. He has developed theoretical techniques for the aerodynamic and aeroelastic design of the HondaJet. In addition, he has conducted wind-tunnel and flight tests at research facilities around the world.
He was named Project Leader for the HondaJet program in 1997. In this capacity, he led all engineering tasks related to the design, including configuration, aerodynamics, aeroelasticity, structures, and systems. Mr. Fujino was responsible for the development of the over-the-wing engine-mount configuration, the high-speed NLF airfoil, the NLF fuselage nose, and the all-composite fuselage structure of the HondaJet.
