Actually, SR-3 and SR-5 are different ENGINES, of 3 and 5 cylinders. That was the main product of his company, the Szekely Aircraft & Engine Co, of Holland Mi.
He then designed one plane, the Flying Dutchman, of which he produced a small quantity but never secured certification. Then went bankrupt.

Yes, it must be since he was built and crashed before the Flying Dutchman was built. But I have no info at all about it.
