According to Jane's 1974-1975, the following airplanes are listed:
	BD-2 "Love One" combined the modified airframe of a Schweizer
	sailplane with a modified Continental piston engine for a non-
	stop unrefuelled around the world flight.  (Neat airplane, I 
	saw it in Augusta, Kansas in 1980)

	BD-3 was not mentioned.

	BD-4 as known.

	BD-5 (need we say more)
 	
	BD-6 was a single seat BD-4 powered by a 50-75 horse Hirth.

	(The following is from memory)

	BD-7 was a slick looking 4 place BD-5 with Lycoming power

	BD-8 was a racing or aerobatic one place airplane that looked fairly
	conventional.

				Enjoy...
