I'm not so sure of that--especially 30 plus years ago.

Same thing happened on the BD-12 less than ten years ago... purchasers'
money
put into escrow, but they never got a kit or their money back.

You're right, of course.

In my moment of recalling my enfatuation with the BD-5, I forgot about the
BD-10, BD-12, and a couple of others that never "made it".

Nearly all Bede's designs have been intriguing in some way, and even the
"successfull" ones (such as the BD-2 and BD-4) have had reputations a little
like a Bengal tiger as a pet...
