Ron,

 

Indeed, the first I heard of Jim Bede was in an article telling how he had taken LOTS of money in deposits for airplane kits or parts, then closed the company and disappeared.

 

You are CERTAINLY RIGHT and I certainly agree that anyone giving money to Bede had better be VERY careful.  However, he does design purty planes, doesn’t he?  (How “successful” they are, I can’t say.)

 

I’d a lot rather give money to Burt Rutan but I don’t think he’s selling designs or kits, now.

Why would you expose anyone to this con-artist...

 

He should be in prison, but instead he go on and on and on stealing money from people, and promising the moon.

 

In his history he has ONE very minor success (BD-4)

 

You would be better served to warn prople about this thief not get people thinking "maybe this time"

 

If you look he has very little to do with the BD-17 now...

 

But hey, you might prove me wrong, send him YOUR money and show me the COMPLETED project.... I'll say sorry...

Remember Jim Bede of the many-wonderful-homebuilt-kit designs, and many undelivered kits?  Maybe he’s now learned from experience – who knows?

 

Anyway, here’s his latest product.  For the brave, it would be a tempting kit to build.  Be SURE to proceed cautiously. J
