“Making its big screen debut in the James Bond flick “Octopussy”, the Bede BD-5 is the world’s smallest jet aircraft. This 860-pound microjet is powered by a single TRS-18 jet engine and has a top speed of 320mph. It can reach altitudes of up to 30,000 feet, “flying for 2 hours before having to re-fuel.”
