What happened to the few pics and some specs?
Dave McC

I don't know. I thought they went out but Bill may have
sent them embedded in something else. I had to go
back and save them to the disk. Here they are.

You sure the heck wouldn't get me to fly in it. Not because of the
design, well sorta.. it was intended to have a 460lb empty weight..
not 800!! That airframe is so heavy that it'd be a dog if you did anything
other than straight and level..  The gross weight is listed as 830..
I've always had a soft spot for the Bd-5, but not w/ that kinda
weight's

I can see why it's in a museum!
