Hmmm, ok...but that’s not a storch on the roof is it?

No, I don't think so .. ,it was the first thing that came to mind.
I forget the specs, but some homebuilts can acheive flight (depending on wind, etc.) in very short runs .. 50-100 ft.

The Slepcev Storch has fascinating numbers.

I've seen a Qucksilver about 800 ft. up that just sat there because it was going into the wind and was probably running a small Rotax engine, I think the smallest is a 447.

The plane is a homebuilt “experimental” Zenith Zenair CH 701, two person plane. Manufactured in Moscow Missouri.
A S.T.O.L plane that can take off in just two hundred feet and land in less if you know how to fly it well.
You buy one as a kit and then put the power plant you want and the instrument package you want.
Flys at about 110m.p.h. or as slow as about 30.
