Zdenek Rublič Aircraft ?

[hesham]

Hi,

Mr. Zdenek Rublič was from Czech,and he born in 1902,became interesting in Avia from 1920s,then with Mraz after the
WWII with Sokol,and in 1961 he developed a R-7 Racek,which was a single seat low-wing aerobatic monoplane,powered
by one 160 hp Walter Minor 6-III engine.

But if he had a series of aircraft,does anyone hear about it,and if he had a Projects or not ?.

The R-7 Seagull was designed and built by Zdenek Rublič, Zdenek Hlavkov and Jarl Tomasov, all members of the Svazarn Aero Club in Brno. For more concerning this aeroplane, see http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aeroweb.cz%2Fclanky%2F2602-rublic-r-7-racek-zapomenuty-akrobat.

Good question. Looking at Zdeněk Rublič's other designs - Mráz M-1 Sokol, M-2 Skaut, and M-3 Bonza, Orličan XLD-40 Mír; L-40 Meta Sokol, and Aero L-29 Delfín - we see 6 projects. Perhaps the R-7 Racek was a numerical follow-on from Rublič's earlier designs?

I think you are right my dear Apophenia,

but there was a small problem,there was also M-4 Project.

 

[Apophenia]

Perhaps the XLD-40 Mír and L-40 Meta Sokol were seen as one extended project?

 

[hesham]

You are right my dear Apophenia,

the XLD-40 was developed from L-40.
