1980 MAULE M5 STAR ROCKET !! ONLY 1,900 HOURS TOTAL TIME, DAMAGED AIRFRAME, CHEAP !! MAULE"S ARE ALL ABOUT SHORT/SOFT/OUTBACK FLYING THE NAMES ARE DESIGNED TO EVOKE FAST CLIMBING, SUCH AS ROCKET AND STRATA-ROCKET, BUT BY 1980, (THEY STARTED IN THE 1960"S) THEY HAD ADDED LOTS OF IMPROVED, LARGER AND MORE VARIED MODELS, AND THIS M5 CARRIED THE "STAR-ROCKET" HANDLE. REMEMBER TO PROVE THEIR SHORT FIELD TAKE-OFF CAPABILITIES, MAULE WOULD TAKE OFF INSIDE THEIR FACTORY BUILDING, AND BE CLIMBING AS THEY CAME OUT THE DOOR !! THE M-5 IS THE MID-SIZED FUSELAGE, 4 SEATS PLUS BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT, BUT WITH 3 LARGE DOORS, SO IT GIVES GOOD ACCESS FOR PEOPLE OR STUFF. THIS AIRPLANE IS A SUPER LOW TOTAL TIME EXAMPLE ONLY 1,900.3 HOURS TOTAL TIME SINCE BRAND NEW !! ONE LOGBOOK SINCE NEW, SO WE HAVE THE ORIGINAL FLIGHT TEST AIRWORTHINESS SIGN OFF, PLUS ALL MAINTENANCE PERFORMED, UP TO THE LAST ANNUAL 10/2015 THIS AIRPLANE SUFFERED DAMAGE WHEN IT FLIPPED INVERTED DURING LANDING. AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE IS DAMAGE TO THE LOWER AND A LITTLE TO THE UPPER FIBERGLASS COWLING. THE ENGINE WAS DAMAGED, AND IT HAS BEEN REMOVED, AND THE ENGINE MOUNT CUT, AND THE ENGINE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS SALE. EXCEPT FOR SOME BOOT COWL DAMAGE, WHICH WRINKLED THE FIREWALL SLIGHTLY, ALL OF THE DAMAGE IS TO THE TOP OF THE AIRPLANE. THE TOPS OF THE WINGS, PLUS THE FIBERGLASS WINGTIPS HAVE SOME DAMAGE, AND THE TOP OF THE CABIN IS DAMAGED WHERE THE ANTENNAS WERE MOUNTED. BOTH LEFT AND ONE RIGHT LIFT STRUTS HAVE DAMAGE THE VERTICAL FIN AND RUDDER ARE SQUISHED DOWN THERE IS SOME, MOSTLY LIGHT TRAILING EDGE DAMAGE TO SEVERAL OF THE CONTROL SURFACES THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE DAMAGE DOES NOT AFFECT THE BELLY, SO THE LANDING GEAR MOUNTING AREAS ARE STRAIGHT, AND THE MAIN GEAR, WITH IT"S 600X6 CLEVELAND WHEELS AND BRAKES ARE GOOD (TAILWHEEL AND SPRING NOT INCLUDED) INSIDE, THERE ARE 2 BUCKET SEATS AND A BENCH REAR. NOTE THAT THE DOORS HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO CLEAR "PATROLLER" DOORS FOR EXCELLENT OUTWARD VISIBILITY. THE AVIONICS TRAYS, FOR A FULL KING STACK ARE INCLUDED AND WIRED, BUT THE PANEL UNITS, INDICATOR AND SOME INSTRUMENTS ARE NOT INCLUDED. THIS AIRPLANE WAS EQUIPPED WITH THE OPTIONAL LONG RANGE FUEL SYSTEM, AND THE TANKS, GUAGES AND PUMPS ARE INTACT AND APPEAR UNDAMAGED WINGTIPS STROBE SYSTEM IS ALSO INTACT. THE M5 SERIES USES ENGINES FROM 180 TO 235 H.P., AND FROM BOTH LYCOMING AND CONTINENTAL, SO THE SKY IS THE LIMIT BY THE WAY, MAULES ARE KNOWN FOR THEIR RUGGEDNESS AND LOAD CARRYING ABILITY, AS WELL AS THE GREAT RATE OF CLIMB (UP TO 2,200 FEET PER MINUTE), AND DEPENDING ON ENGINE INSTALLED, CAN CRUISE AT NEARLY 200 MPH ! THIS AIRPLANE IS SOLD WITH ALL AIRFRAME LOGS SINCE NEW, AS WELL AS SOME 337"S, FLIGHT MANUAL, PILOT"S MAINT MANUAL, FAA BILL OF SALE AND FAA AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE. HANGERED IN GOODLAND KANSAS, IN THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE STATE. WE WILL COVER THE STORAGE COST FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE END OF THE AUCTION, AND IT IS INEXPENSIVE IF YOU NEED TO PAY A LITTLE TIME YOURSELF. THIS IS A COOL PROJECT AIRPLANE, OR A GOOD PARTS DONOR, OR A NEAT DISPLAY AIRPLANE, AND IT IS PRICED VERY CHEAP. DON"T MISS IT !!
