Thanks to JayBee, here is the BD-5S and Zwilling related one:

The long span is special for PR19_kit, maybe ;)

Then an asymmetric half-sailplane:

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Thanks! ;)

And to complete further, here is the jet part:

A half-jet twin features the difference in tailplane size:

The next one featured a very rare asymmetry, with the center pod not central exactly:

And a half-V-tail zwilling:

The prototype BD5 really DID have a V tail.

Yes, that picture was the source of my idea doing it (and that is why the canopy is different from standard on my drawing), but I had no 3-view to direct precisely, that is why I called mine BD-5V instead of BD-5 prototype :unsure:
Many more are coming, as well coming from photographs without 3-views: BD-5F, BD-5TB, BD-5P, BD-5U. In one day, it was not possible (with my computer used partly by my son), but a full Week is a lot of time (for Drawings, not for models)... :unsure:

Thanks a lot!

Then, there was, actually built and flown, a BD-5 with a F-100 style nose:

The Acapella 100/200 were like twin-boom BD-5 but not exactly, so I prefer inventing my own twin-boom BD-5:

Thanks to Secret Projects, I found on the Web a twin-jet BD-5, I call it BD-5U (unsure) :unsure:

As well for a BD-5 with nose propeller: (the P name is unsure, PP means Push-Pull)
