1999 Maule M-7-235C

The Maule M-7-235C is widely regarded as one of the most capable "do-everything" utility aircraft in its class. With its 235-hp fuel-injected Lycoming IO-540, large control surfaces, and robust landing gear, it delivers excellent short-field performance, strong climb capability, and predictable handling across a wide loading envelope. Owners consistently point to the Maule's ability to operate comfortably out of short, unimproved strips while still cruising efficiently enough for real cross-country work-making it equally well suited to backcountry, utility, and owner-flown missions. C-FCDM has benefited from an extensive, professional rebuild following a 2019 nose-over event. The aircraft was fully disassembled, repaired, re-rigged, and refinished in accordance with Maule factory maintenance and rigging procedures, resulting in a condition that presents exceptionally well and, in many respects, better than when it left the factory. The rebuild addressed structure, systems, controls, fabric, paint, and propulsion with meticulous attention to detail. The aircraft now features a new MT composite propeller, refreshed fabric and paint, updated avionics including a G5 PFD and panel-mounted GPS, and a proven Lycoming IO-540 that was professionally repaired, tested, and reinstalled by a reputable engine facility. This is a strong, honest Maule with meaningful work completed the right way. The aircraft has always been hangared, and it shows in the overall condition and presentation.
