World's Slowest Airplane Crash.

From You Tube:

The Shuttleworths Collections Sopwith Triplane replica had an unfortunate accident while landing at Old Warden Aerodrome during 2014's Military Pageant Air Show. The pilot Dodge Bailey was unhurt in the incident. After a complete assessment of the damage the aircraft will be repaired and back in the air as soon as possible.

I can't tell if the crowd was concerned or just thought it was cute.

I remember when I went through my hipster phase in music back in the early naughties. (ha, that's a funny way to talk about the early 2000's)

Rotary engines kind of such for just this purpose. The best way of throttling back was to cut the ignition on and off with reducing the fuel/air mixture.

With the large rotational inertia of the engine, the pilot can't quickly throttle up without the risk of rolling the plane.
