Does anybody have one?
Rene's book has cut-aways of RF2, RF5, RF6 & RF-10, but not of the RF4, and I can't find any in any of the articles or brochures I have.
Richard Mole needs one for an article he's writing, and I would love to have one on my study wall.
Any leads out there?
Yours. Bob

So why not use the RF-2 cut away and state that there are pushrods instead of wires to the ailerons;-)?
I would have loved a RF-4 cut away drawing too, but I've never seen one.
May the 4's be with you/ Jörgen

Hi Guys, thanks for all your inputs.
The trouble with at RF2 cut-away Jorgen, is that there are just so very many differences: flat-bottom rear fuselage, cables not pushrods to elevators, ditto to ailerons, ailerons not Frise, different size, not balanced, not differential, Schemp-Hirth top & bottom air brakes rather than curved, upper surface spoilers, higher & different seat, different fin & rudder shapes, different canopy, smaller fuel tank... It goes on & on. Last night I did find this reference, but could not follow it up -- too late & too much back pain.
More later if I can find that reference.
It's such a popular & beautiful airplane, I can't believe nobody's drawn a cut-away.
yours, Bob
