  • Here we have a Maule with LOTS of potential! I don't know how I could lose on this one.

    The low wing is called, "predictive crosswind landing geometry".
    They're still trying to figure out what to do if the wind is coming from the other way.

      BTW, I have a 1981 PA-32R-301T with relatively low time that MAY need a wing-root repair. Any advice on selling it, or obtaining the best remaining value? The broker who has had it has not been proactive in selling it.

    I do like the wing mod that's called reverse dihedral it prevents the heby heby shake! It's based on super secret Soviet ground effect research ?

    a new aerodynamic concept. My son is a construction engineer designing fuselages and airplane engines. The propeller... wowww... to calculate the speed of the air flow at the bent propeller blade... I think it entered a black hole vortex. He entered through the back of the galaxy and came out here on earth.

    Must be that new wing design from China: “One Wing Low”

    HAHAHAHA! A beaut, Clark, indeeeed!😁That might be right in my price range now! Of course, I'd have to fly it as-is, since I'd have nothing left to fix it. 🤣Wonder what the story is on THAT? Definite off-field landing from the grass jammed in the gear there. Wasn't a comfortable ride from the looks of things!!
    EDIT: Ahh, I see it was storm damage on Katherine's Report.

    The prop with the curl is a new design feature to create a vortex that gives extra lift on takeoff, I used to own a car like that, on the windshield was a note "keys in the ignition" nobody stole it.
