The Maule M5 210C 

I saw that too😅 he was anticipating the bounce 😂

Interesting. Thanks.

Very true!

I Love my Maule, you are absolutely correct on excess speed. I have never learned to make a good wheel landing on the Maule , to doit right, you have to have the correct attitude and run out airspeed and altitude at the same time. Enjoyed the video. I've heard that Mr. Maule will give lessons was planning on going over there, but got to Lehrer I was satisfied with most of my stall landings.

@@jackiewindham8199 , if I remember correctly, the Maule handbook states that wheel landings are NOT recommended. I did them for my tail wheel endorsement, but not after that.

Agreed 👍🏼

You bet!

I think they all have negative flaps for cruise.

Thanks

Thanks.

That would have been fun to see. Was the 170 blown the the back of the hangar.

@@skywagonuniversity5023 Didn't disturb any of the aircraft parked inside. It's a big hangar. The sound was incredible!

Thats awesome! Ive been there so I can see how it could ve done! Would've loved to see that! I heard his wife made him stop it after he got off the ground to soon once and got pretty close to the top of the door😄

Yes, it's not evident from the famous picture but that hangar is 300 feet long from the front doors to the rear doors so basically the length of a football field.

Tom, I've known Mark for 13 years and I've never heard him lie about anything, and I assure you that he doesn't need you to buy a plane from him. Every plane has multiple offers, no matter what condition they are in. The inspection likely checked the cylinders for compression and found them to be good. You can look in your logs to see if they were within specs. Have you called Mark to discuss this? Have you asked the mechanic any questions? By the way, Mark doesn't have a mechanic working for him. He does recommend several to avoid any conflict of interest. It's so unbecoming and disingenuous to handle this the way you have. You say you accept responsibility, but it sounds more like you are looking for someone else to blame for your decision. - Don the Camera Guy

Hi Tom, To put this into perspective. The Maule had a pretty much zero time engine. (180 HP Lycoming) I think it had 10 hours on it but it had been about 5 years and it had lived in Utah. It was annualled and flown here to Placerville (Northern California) Then it was here and I flew it a bit. We did a video on it of course. I flew it then as well. You bought it on condition that I deliver it to you so I did. I did not use sales pitch and the mechanic was not collaborating with me to make the sale. I did not even own the plane. I had no money tied up in it. It was a very nice plane. I'd never have flown it over the Sierras and the Rockies and the Great Salt lake if I'd know that it had some internal corrosion in the engine. Also, if an engine is like that all it needs is disassembly and inspection and replace as necessary. It does not need to be overhauled. The price difference between these two options is tens of thousands of dollars. Overhauling takes it back to zero time. It was already there. It just needed an IRAN (Inspect and Repair as Necessary) I advised you of this when you told me that the engine had corrosion. I gave you all kinds of time and money saving advice back then. I wish you had done it. A pre-purchase inspection and an annual neither require an engine boroscope. With 10 hours on it and a dry Utah history there was no need to do one because the compressions were excellent and it was not burning oil and there was no metal in the filter at annual. Also you cannot see the cam in a Lycoming without pulling off a cylinder and that was not necessary on an engine with 10 hours on it. This situation was bad luck and no-one could have known this. I'll sell it for you when you are ready at zero comission.

maules are great but they tend to loose elevator authority on landing do to being so short.

@@iffyaviator That's because of the servo tab trim. Trim nose down on short final and you'll get it all back.

You've got us excited too!

Excellent.

Glad you liked it!

Thanks great back story.

Thank you! Will do!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you.

Thanks.

The ring is what reminds me to turn it off. Sorry.

Thank you! Will do!

It's quite far.

Glad you enjoyed it

hahaha the short coupled fight. Hate pavement in the pacers and maules

You should!

Initially I thought it was rudder trim in the traditional sense.

Cool, thanks

Yes, access is not as easy as a big doored Cessna.

Thank you.

Don't point it out, hardly anyone noticed. :-)

@@skywagonuniversity5023 you still have that unicorn?

@@justinparker7795 Yes I still have it. Look on www.skywagons.com

@@skywagonuniversity5023 Thank you Sr. have a great day!

Thanks.

Very

The first will be a Meyers 200D and a rare 540 powered PZL when it's annual is done.

Big old schoolbus a 207.

Thanks for the info!

Hi Steve! As soon as we can get access to a Super Viking, we will make the video.

If the phone doesn't ring, was it really a Skywagon University video?

@@skywagonuniversity5023 of course........ noooooo! 😁😁😁😁😁

Placerville is at 2250 Feet. Summer can be 5500 DA.

We are located at Placerville (KPVF). Let us know if you are coming to see us.

That is very kind of you, but we did a 235 in with two other Cherokees recently. They are great planes. Mark

About $100,000

I'd like to very much but I need one to come here. Get metal spars in the one you buy.

@@skywagonuniversity5023 Thanks, metal spar is definitely on the list.

Yes, you need TW time and time in type. It's a vicious circle.

Haha thats who I just got a quote from!! They wanted $6,800 for me! My Bro n law whos my A&P says that insurance has gone nuts because of the big deal with all the Boeings being grounded. He said there was a part in the insurance in the fine print about in the rare event of type being grounded that they would pay out.. They didn't think they would ever have to because it had never happened.. Well since it happened its cost the insurance company/companies shit loads of money. But I always heard they were high for maules anyway. But Id talked to some guys online a few years ago and a couple were saying around 2,300 annually but they had tail wheel time under their belts.

The prop is a C203 McCauley set to turn at 2800 RPM to get the 210 HP. Cruises at 2400 RPM. Power is for take-off.

It is much smaller than a 180 inside for pilot space and the door is smaller. Once you are in it is OK.

@Plant Power - Yes! As soon as they go into production. There are some additional tests being done, but it is close and we are looking forward to it! I should mention I've got a deposit on one, so look for some flying adventures featuring the M2 as soon as I get it. - Don the Camera Guy

You would have trouble fitting comfortably in it.

Yeah the struts are right in the way to swing in your legs.

I'm 6'3" and flew a 235-horse M5 with glass doors on air tours with the seat set all the way aft. You might be a bit uncomfortable. The back seats are super tight too, no way an adult could sit behind me with the seat set where I wanted it.

About $100,000.

It was a bouncer.

OK Thanks.

Always.

Turn your volume down if you don't like the "yapping" Then it's all "showing"

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

@@skywagonuniversity5023 Thankfully I won’t be holding her. Sky wagons are gorgeous this thing looks like a cartoon. I’ll bet you in a pole the majority will agree.

What the hell!?! Ugly!?🤔 man.. the cool look of them Is what sold me! First one I ever saw was yellow with black stripes. The long sleek cowling looks so dang good! I was like, "I have to have one of those!" Had one bought in the next year! I think the fat blunt cowling looks hideous on cesnas.. But I like unique things. I absolutely hate buying whats extremely common like cesnas or a john deere🙄 for crying out loud..

"like a yaw damper" aileron assist rudder synchronization. The "not knowing the pronunciation" was a joke because I have an accent. You should have more to do than comment like this don't you.

Well it does have a yaw damper.. Ive been around Maules and studied them and flown them and been around guys who own them and he did a great job. You probably cant even comprehend what a short stroke piston is. Because it makes more sense to say short stroke crank to me... 🤔 🤣
