The Fournier RF-47 is a French light aircraft from the 1990s, designed and manufactured by Avions Fournier. Its maiden flight took place on 9 April 1993. This model features a low-wing design with tricycle landing gear and a monoplane configuration. The initial prototype was equipped with a 90 hp (67 kW) Sauer engine, which is a modified version of the Volkswagen air-cooled engine. However, production versions were planned to primarily utilize a 90 hp (67 kW) Limbach L2400 engine, with the Sauer engine offered as an alternative. The RF-47's cockpit accommodates two occupants seated side-by-side beneath a single-piece bubble canopy that opens by hinging at the rear.
