Honeywell lands in Phoenix weeks before Aerospace investor day

Honeywell’s Dassault Falcon 8X, tail N988H, touched down at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport on May 15 after a two-hour, 19-minute flight from Boeing Field in Seattle. The trip came just days after the company announced an expanded engine manufacturing line in Phoenix for the Navy’s M-346N trainer program.

The flight coincides with preparations for Honeywell Aerospace’s inaugural investor day, scheduled for June 3 in Phoenix, where leadership will outline strategy and financial targets for the standalone entity [prnewswire.com](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/honeywell-to-host-2026-investor-days-for-aerospace-and-automation-businesses-302730735.html). The spin-off, expected to close on June 29, will leave Honeywell Aerospace as a publicly traded company based in Phoenix [flightglobal.com](https://www.flightglobal.com/systems-interiors/2026/04/honeywell-to-complete-aerospace-technologies-spin-on-29-june/).

Recent flights show Honeywell visiting Phoenix regularly in the weeks leading up to the split. The May 15 arrival follows a pattern of cross-country and transborder hops, including a stop at Boeing Field—home to many aerospace suppliers—hinting at final operational reviews before the spin-off takes effect.
