Hmm...... By that definition, (or close) I think a Taylorcraft BC-12D is
very close.

I have several logged flights, in a Taylorcraft, of 4 hours or more where
the engine only ran for a half-hour or so. We would take off from Pearson
Airpark near Vancouver, Wa and head for Mt. Hood. As soon as we would hit
the wave, we'd shut the Cont. 65 down and pull up into a stall to stop the
prop.


I think that would not be typical of all flights, in all areas, right? g

Still, I wish I had been on one of those flights. (only figuratively
speaking, of course)
