By General Aviation News Staff · January 30, 2017 ·

Maule Air has expanded its M-9 series with the newly certified M-9-260 Fuel Injected and M-9-235 Carbureted. The former is powered by a 260-hp Lycoming IO-540, the latter by a 235-hp Lycoming O-540 that can burn mogas.

Both can seat up to five people and have a 2,800 pound gross weight. The useful load of the -260 is 1,092 pounds, while the -235 is 1,098 pounds.

Each have Maule’s four door arrangement ,which includes the wide-opening cargo doors to access up to 42 cubic feet of cargo area behind the side-by-side pilot seats.

Other key features of the M-9 are heavy-duty aluminum spring gear, all-metal wings, -7° flap setting for enhanced cruise performance, and Maule STOL performance.

“The M-9 gives pilots Maule’s large cargo capacity and the useful load to fill it up,” said Brent Maule.

The modular cabin design allows the pilot to configure it for a variety of missions including:

  • Cross-Country Cruiser: Carry four adults plus 100 pounds of luggage and over four hours of fuel, or
  • Multi-Mission Aircraft:  Carry two adults plus 250 pounds of equipment and over seven hours of fuel.

Each model can be customized from an extensive list of available options.
