Rasmussen is an authority in this field, so his word would and should suffice...
Anyway, not to remember again our last exchange, but remember when I wrote...

That was one of the things "discovered" in the past years, when it was found that, apart from a small circular hatch on the starboard side of the cowl being in a lower rather than upper position, most of the G-14/AS produced (at least all of those producec by MTT, apparently) had a look that was almost identical to that of a "classic" G-10, or at least how it had been represented in the past twenty years.
It's a part of the same process which identified the existence of the Erla G-10s and whose published sources are roughly the same evidenced earlier. Even here, though, most of the process of research and study has been made and perfected on the web, rather than on printed paper, the reasons for that have been already dealt with...
Sorry man, it is a fruit of the same tree...
P.S. I am also adding a quote of one posts of mine on the same subject (literally) of three years ago...
