At least about 100 of the thousands being laid off in Wichita can expect brighter skies. HondaJet has begun recruiting specialized engineers for its Greensboro, North Carolina, headquarters.

HondaJet expects to fly a conforming example of its twinjet this summer and achieve certification and first deliveries by late next year.
