"Homebuilt" and "jet" are two words you don't often see together. At 359 pounds, Juan Jimenez's Bede BD-5J holds the Guinness world record for the lightest single-engine jet aircraft. Very few plane builders will ever take on a project like this, but all have probably dreamt of doing so. Kudos to Juan Jimenez of bd5.com for making it a reality!
