Default Beechcraft sold

If your talking Eclipse, they have/are building a complete
support network, aircraft are being sold and delivered.

The most unique jet marketing was the BD5, aside from a
movie role in a James Bond flick, not much ever happened
with it.

Well, Jim Bede was a bit quirky, anyway. I remember when his operation was
here in Cleveland. I sat in the BD5 that is in the Seattle Air museum, and
I didn't think I'd be able to get out of it again. There was no way that I
could have closed the canopy.
