Learn what it takes to FLY A MAULE
Our Chief Instructor Jen flies her Maule M5 everywhere, including as far north as Fairbanks, Alaska, and throughout the Idaho backcountry.
After racking up over 1,000 hours in Maules, she’s determined to share her love and knowledge of these incredibly capable aircraft. Joining her quest are very experienced tailwheel instructors – Scott Holland, Scott Williams, Philippe Sabbagh, and Michel Hoche-Mong – who all have impressive resumes.

Pilots transitioning to Maule must be proficient in tailwheel aircraft. If not, we recommend starting in our Citabria and then moving to the Maule once the instructor deems it appropriate.
Pilots intending to rent aircraft after training must have insurance prior to beginning training.
For M5 training & rental: renter’s insurance for a minimum of $50,000 liability, physical, and property coverage is required
M7/M9 training & rental: renter’s insurance for a minimum of $100,000 liability, physical, and property coverage is required
High-time and proficient tailwheel pilots who will be training dual-only may be considered for a waiver of the insurance requirements.
ALL renters must understand that operating outside of Aerodynamic’s current Renter’s Agreement, or operating in a manner that can be constituted as careless or reckless per the Renter’s Agreement, means the renter is 100% liable for all costs associated with damage, liability, and aircraft replacement/repair value.
Give our office a call to schedule your Maule Transition Training with our experts. We can also incorporate a flight review, aircraft checkout, or IPC into the training. Our in-house maintenance shop currently maintains local Maules, and focuses on bush and STOL mods. On occasion we’ve even been known to fly out and help a pilot ferry their new-to-them Maule aircraft back home..
