If so, when is the last time you saw a direct drive 2 stroke aircraft

McCullough made two-stroke opposed four-bangers for miltary target
drones in several different sizes. Many of those were sold surplus and
found their way into several homebuilts and a lot of Bensen
Gyrocopters. I once owned one; the vibration was awesome, as was the
fuel consumption.
