At Dremio we have two things at the moment:

A JDBC driver that is built on Arrow and served as the inspiration for some
of the design choices in flight [1]
A preview flight connector that doesn't yet expose JDBC [2]

These the former is built on Avatica (part of the Apache Calcite project)
so the thinking has been that a Avatica on top of Flight client might make
the most sense. I don't believe anyone has started thinking through how to
do that though.
