Marcel Jurca standing in front of his other flagship design, the MJ2 Tempete, at the origin of his own formula of sport aircrafts with so peculiar characteristics.
A real "personnage" of aviation, whose meeting is always rich of content.

During the JAF 1999 fly-in, when I first met with Marcel Jurca.
Could not think about making the dream come true without full support of my family.
Laurence, my wife, with kids Luca and Kim, looking into colorfoul Sirocco of Vincent Martinez at JAF 1999 fly-in.
Vincent built his Sirocco in 6 years. He also owns a Cassut racer which he constructed after..
Luca and Kim near an MJ2 Tempete at the RSAB (Belgian RSA) 2000 annual fly-in at Maubeuge (France) A word also about the Jurca Air Force team, whose enthusiasm and demonstrations definitely convinced me to opt for a Jurca design.
Represented by the Cardichals of the brotherhood: Vincent Martinez and Francis Hendryckx, here with Marcel Jurca at the 1999 fly-in at Briare.
"Cardichal" is a title specific to JAF, contraction of Cardinal and Marechal, both higher ranks of their respective hierarchy, still giving a higher rank.At the aeronautical level, main activity of the JAF is centered around an aerobatic patrol of 8 Tempete.
Here, one of them : the beautiful MJ2 Tempete of Francis Hendryckx.Team at the St-Flour (France) fly-in, circling around a Jurca MJ7 Gnatsum (P-51 Mustang replica)
It all began by buying a construction license (#119) in September 1999 and received set of plans. What an undertaking it will be : I have everything to learn.
I hope I will be able to fly it within 5 to 7 years, after completing about 5000 hours of work.
