http://newatlas.com/vanilla-aircraft...-record/47295/ Very efficent! Jet-fuel powered but with a large propeller at the back. Could be a Diesel engine driving it. I'm sure there are pistons and gear reductions involved.. Impressive performance, shows you on how little power a clean airframe can sustain altitude.
