An Antonov An-2 appears to hover like a helicopter, when demonstrating the incredible slow flight characteristics of the aircraft during the Thunder Over the Valley Air Show 2010, (Santa Maria, CA). Looks like they also had a pretty good head wind to. I'm guessing the pilot's ground speed was close to 20 mph.
Nice plane for air a walks....)))

an-2 cant be stalled he is only sinking at stall speed by the way the stall speed is around 50 Km/h :)
