- We present the optical properties of Radio-Loud quasars along the Main Sequence (MS) of quasars. A sample of 355 quasars selected on the basis of radio detection was obtained by cross-matching the FIRST survey at 20cm and the SDSS DR12 spectroscopic survey. We consider the nature of powerful emission at the high-Feii end of the MS. At variance with the classical radio-loud sources which are located in the Population B domain of the MS optical plane, we found evidence indicating a thermal origin of the radio emission of the highly accreting quasars of Population A. A detailed description of the sample and the performed analysis can be found in Ganci et al. (2019).
