AFAIK there were plans to use DC-3 airframes turned into gliders for some operation in WWII. But anyway, the only aircraft actually meant for something analogue to pulse-and-glide are those motor-gliders. On a sidenote, once a Brazilian Air Force flight instructor told me gliding should be a part of pilots training because it could be useful during some emergency, even though it might not work for every aircraft type.
