Maule Air

Maule Air, Inc. is an American aircraft manufacturer based in Moultrie, Georgia. The company is known for producing a line of single-engine, high-wing, tailwheel aircraft designed for backcountry operations and general aviation. These aircraft are prized for their robust construction, short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities, and versatility.

Maule Air was founded in 1962 by Belford Maule in Napoleon, Michigan. The company later moved to Moultrie, Georgia, where it continues to operate today.

The company's most popular models include the Maule M-4, M-5, M-7, and M-9 series. These aircraft are typically powered by Lycoming piston engines, although some models have been modified with turbine engines. They are commonly used for bush flying, cargo hauling, personal transportation, and recreational flying in remote and challenging environments.

Maule aircraft are known for their fabric-covered wings and welded steel tube fuselage construction. This design provides a good balance of strength, durability, and relatively light weight. The tailwheel configuration enhances maneuverability on rough terrain.

The company continues to produce and support its existing line of aircraft, serving both civilian and commercial customers worldwide. Maule Air has a strong reputation for building rugged and reliable aircraft capable of operating in demanding conditions.
