PS: Once heard a story that an (Ambassador ?) display aircraft couldn't start one engine; but was light, stripped out inside and little fuel. Test Pilot managed to take off on one. That brought the house down !

Any truth in it ?
Quite believable Danny. When the Aero Commander was introduced they did a demonstration flight from Oklahoma to Washington on one engine. Had to be one engine because one prop was stored in the cabin.
