The PIK-24 Pileus was a design to attach PIK-20 wings (std. class glider, span 15m) to RF-4 fuselage, the project started in late 70es, but it never got finished.
Attached an other finnish forum thread with some old Fournier pics. most of the pictures are unfortunately already deleted by time.

I think in Finland the Fournier "density" might be the highest in the world, 19 fourniers/5,4million people

edit: The link will bring you to the main Forun page, don't know why, search: Finnish discussion/Ilmailuhistoria/Saalastin Tuulia arkistot (in page 3)

Hi,

If you cut and copy the link it will work. Some how the forum link is adding some text to the address.

Antti sure did his homework on the Finnish Rfs.

I think all but the first RF4 that came new to the US was red. The first being green.
