The Bede BD-7 was a light aircraft constructed in the United States in 1976. It shared the Bede BD-5's pusher propeller configuration but was considerably larger. The fuselage was all-metal and the wings used the unique panel-rib wing construction pioneered on the Bede BD-4. Some sources state that the prototype (registration N7BD) flew in December 1976 but most suggest that it was never actually completed much less flown.
