This company seems to be selling them again bd-micro.com they don't list any prices not sure they even offer a jet version although they have videos of one. They do seem to have a engine version and a turboprop version. The pictures of the cockpit show a LCD glass display much like all the modern aircraft. Most of the crashes were at airshows which isn't surprising.
Amazing...one lucky guy to have owned and flown one....I was lucky to get my photo taken in one of the propped ones at the factory just Nth of Kansas City, back on a trip to the USA when I was 21!!!!!....Thanks...Laurie
the Irony..once intended as a cheap diy kit is now an expensive ott $ collectors item!....if only these prices were paid for the real kits instead of silly cheap price money then the company would still be alive today and kicking and churning these lovely little aircraft out at a sensible price....
About $100,000 and one comes up evey 3-8 years so keep checking the internet ;) Just a suggestion, it might be easier getting a BD5 without an engine and having someone fix it up to handle a jet turbine engine then find/buy a couger mini jet engine. I forget the actual name of the engine...TRS-18-048 I think.
Must suck to get rid of one of the rarest items on the face of the Earth. From what I understand, there are only a handful of these planes left in flying condition. (Maybe less than 5) Makes me wonder why they don't build a few more of these?
@Umaxen I've seen that BD-5 and it's a beautiful jet with awesome performance. Red Bull is going to have a blast with it. In response to making more BD-5's, I just started test flying mine in January and it looks like a few more could be on the way in the near future. Take a look at the video I recently made.
Very nice Yves! Thank you for the video! It was a delight to have you and Corrina out to Az. Hello to Guido, Gerhard, Marcus, Raimund, and Norbert! Good luck and good health to you all. Prost! Nathan

no one is going to comment on the terrible music? It's gotta be John Denver or pick a different song...great plane though!

@Sjsimmons1019 I'm sorry to say that building one properly is not cheap but BD-Micro Technologies is your source if you want one.
