AeroExpo - a few quick thoughts from Unicom by Ian Seager | It was hot, numbers were down and the percentage of 'registration enthusiasts' was up. Sunday was inevitably very quiet.

Raise Your Hand If You Like This 1974 BD-5 Promo Pic by Martt | I found this BD-5 promo pic in the Vol. 1 No. 3 edition of the 'BD News' publication put out in 1974.

He sold the kit before it was really even started and put a deposit down on two of the 'D' model airplanes, the ones that were supposed to be a factory built and ready-to-fly. Then shortly after, he traded one of the 'D' slots for an order on a BD-5 Jet. As it would turn out, none of these airplanes would ever be delivered... but at least I've got a stack of cool promo materials to show for all the excitement : )…
