Paper RFM do exist. The FAA wouldn’t accept the electronic format so paper manuals were generated.

From TCDS:

Paper format RFM:
Rotorcraft Flight Manual H160-B, first issue, dated 25
June 2020, EASA-approved 1 July 2020, or later approved revisions

There are generic paper manuals and a/c serial specific manuals.

The eRFM is far better. A single data file can have an individual aircraft or a fleet of H160 in a single download. No more adding and removing pages just upload the file. A specific aircraft can be selected by serial number and the manual will contain only supplements and equipment fitted to that aircraft. No more pages and pages of irrelevant supplements. Also, take the floats off, deselect in the app and all reference to the floats is removed from the manual.

It’s a brave new world.
