The biggest problem with building jets as small as the BD-5J is the choice
of engine. There just aren't that many engines out there that will fit in an
aircraft that small, and most of them are old designs. There's a few that
are coming out of the upscaling of R/C model turbine engines, but they're
not quite yet there for manned aircraft. There are other issues which pose
significant challenges, like fuel consumption and cockpit space limitations.
The result is there isn't much of a market for what comes out of all that,
because the aircraft is impractical for anything except poking holes in the
sky, doing airshows or pretending you're a cruise missile.

Thanks
