My favorite in those days, and all I could afford, a Piper PA-22 Tri-Pacer.  It had a 150HP Lycoming 4-cyl, fixed pitch prop, manual flaps, and 36-gal tanks, seating four, max gross wt of 2000 pounds.  I was a member of a flying club from 1957 to 1966.  It would definitely out-perform the Cessna equivalent, off grass or pavement.

You are correct.  There is no scheduled passenger service here. Nashville is 70 
miles away by Interstate.  There is a combined fire/ambulance station 6-8 
minutes away.

My last night flight appears to have been in 1966, when I shot 6 night 
take-offs  and landings.
