Yup 200+. I work for a municipality and we have many vehicles that sit and are not driven for weeks at a time that fire right up. I will add though that about 95% of them have battery kill switches, so no parasitic draw.
Btw, all our sled dogs are now battery operated EV dogs since Elon Musk bought all the sled teams.🤣
I love it, might be Elon Mush..:love:. Are they all the same make battery? if so, What brand. Flew a king air B200, often referred to as a super king into Edmonton twice, Edmonton international, and Villeneuva(?) at the minimums, snow and at night. The flight service there adopted us, there was no driving into Edmonton in that weather. Edmonton, is FLAT no wonder the snow blasts across the ground with nothing to even slow it down. Loved the river through in town, would like to go back but have no excuse to do so...darn, the locals were great!

No many different makes of vehicles, so not all the batteries are from the same manufacturers.
Villenueve is where I did my first solo as it was our training airport, Piper Tomahawk was the trainer.
The King Airs are very zoomy.😏

Wow, looks a lot better in this pic. It was a squeeze getting in, if not for 30-35 kts very nearly straight down the runway, we would have had to defer, Edmonton international was close to traffic till "further notice", runway obstruction, and cells moving through, other two were closed.. period. This airplane is a pussy cat, very easy to fly. Your experience in a tomahawk T-tail would give you a heads up in this, they are both pitch sensitive, elevators are not in the slip stream of the flaps and for the most part out of the prop wash. Tomahawk produced private pilots, who would, by necessity, learned to FLY, ie, manage the airplane, thanks to is spin characteristics and low power. The Cruise is 270 kts but will slow down nicely making landing easy, better than spec. This king air makes most all pilots look pro. I remember the personnel there really took care of us, follow me took us into the lee of the flying club or flight service center. Didn't this airport used to called "rose"?
 
You are correct.
Rose field Aerodrome.

There is a small grass field near here also called Rose, it'd said that the old mail planes used to land there. Often used for car shows these days, I've had the 30 there, not entered, just to get there. However, we had a few ask what it was and liked it. (y) I'd venture there not a few rose fields.
