About the RF5 Fournier
The Sportavia Putzer RF5 Fournier is a type-certificated glider designed to serve as a motor glider. It suits pilots seeking a tandem layout featuring an enclosed cockpit for its crew of two. Propelled by a single piston engine, this low-winged monoplane offers a semi-aerobatic capability.
Rooting its design in a single-seat predecessor, the aircraft features wooden construction alongside a retractable center landing gear and a steerable tailwheel. Pilots can utilize spoilers to decrease lift, and the parked machine allows a single person to unlock and fold the wingtips inward to minimize required storage space.
