Agree ,
Don't like the engine's either.
Idle check sounds horrible (and then : imagine the student saying "one time in summer it did shut down".
And my best reply was "well it is winter now")
The intended shut down , the one after a flight and after having parked , is an immediate one : prop stands still like a column after turning the key.
No cozy little prop spins after a shutdown that is.
it is more a mature motorglider in my opinion.
Best days of my life were in a glider and with that in mind , on a scale of 1 to 10 :
7
