Jurca Fourtouna

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Jurca MJ-14 Fourtouna (English: Tempest) was a racing aircraft designed in France in the late 1970s. It was an unconventional, low-wing cantilever monoplane with retractable tailwheel undercarriage. The fuselage had a low profile that required the pilot to sit in a reclined position. The vertical stabiliser was very small, but aft of the cockpit, the fuselage changed shape from being low and broad to being high and narrow.
