Well, if you got the latest EAA magazine, you saw my work and didn't even know it! My friend Ed Hicks got credit for my photos! Not a big deal... now if it was the cover... :)

Some of you are thinking I spelled Sirocco wrong, but this is a Sperocco, or Special Sirocco! It has more power, raised rear seat, longer canopy, smaller tail, stronger fuselage, different wings, and I'm sure many more changes.

Nice airplane. All-wood, too. Thanks for the beautiful shots.
 
I’m actually sitting in a hotel in Denton, TX and just got done reading this month’s Sport Pilot. Great pics!
 
Cool plane and great pictures as usual! Man I love the EA world, I was today years old when I found out this thing existed
 
The Jurca Sirocco's claim to fame is the complete lack of dihedral in its wing. Marcel Jurca said it behaved as if it had some. Push rudder and it will bank. I'd love to try one someday.

There is something really cool about zero dihedral, or even a little anhedral..
 
Just saw the Instagram where they give you credit..really nice…and I don’t follow them
