If the plane never leaves the ground it isn't an airplane as far as I'm

cardboard
and a light jet engine and call it the lightest jet airplane.

Couldn't someone toss a couple of those model plane jet engines on an
ultralight and take the record for smallest jet? It would take some
research to select the right plane but I'd go with one of Chuck's
planes...

Add a couple model plane jet engines to an ultralight and you would have
developed a jet airplane with the slowest max speed. You can file your
new
world record with "Ripley's Believe It or Not."

It's been done as a single engine jet, and was reported in Experimenter
(since changed to Sport Pilot) a couple of years ago. I not longer have,
nor recall, the issue.
