Default Do you recognize this gentleman?

Without using the name of the plane as a hint, would you know who this is? I sure didn't, but then again was only 10 when this was published in the 71 World Champs program. One of the more unusual poses in the program.

Who is this guy?

Here is another photo from the same event? Taken from the "Holy Grail" RCM Flight Training Course, Volume II.

I was going to say that the name of the model, the Super Sicroly, can be read off the side of the first picture. A clear giveaway. The last picture posted makes it obvious I suppose.

That Super Sicroly II was 9 lbs. with only ~700 square inches and a Webra Blackhead. Prolly didn't have much vertical.

That's Hanno again, with his dad. I was in college then in PA (Lehigh) and attended the 1971 Doylestown internationals.

I grew up in P'burg, NJ. Were you at LU when they had the big meet at Bradens (Easton) about the same time?
