That's what I was wondering - although I hadn't gone so far as to search for him further. There were two things that made me think this way... first off, Bokor seems to have disappeared from the aeronautical record in America after 1909. And secondly, I came across the mention of "the Hungarian giant, the Bokor III".

Now you've presented the Bokor II, which confirms my suspicions somewhat.

More investigation of this fellow is definitely needed.
